"Deep, dark, purple and youthful in the glass. Dark-fruited aromas: plum, mulberry, dark cherry, Asian spice, cola and vanilla. Flavours of liquored plum, Christmas pudding, vanilla, cherry cola and spice. It’s full and rich, plush, polished and very nicely balanced, tannins are evident and generous and shape the wine and provide structure and mouth-feel." Aaron Brasher, September 2021

"A supple and smooth medium-bodied shiraz picked at optimum ripeness, and given appropriate oak handling. Made to a price, but with flair and intensity."

"There's no artifice about this wine: it is an unrestrained exercise in the heartland of Barossa Valley shiraz style, full of purple and black fruits, ripe tannins and a quick salute from compatible oak."

"Ripe, concentrated berried fruits fly seriously close to 'too sweet' territory. There's a plum sauce/blackberry jam aspect to this. For colour and weight though it offers plenty."

"The grapes were grown by Carl Lindner. Very good colour announces a wine ready to do battle with anyone who gets in the way of sister, with a compote of poached blackberries and plums, tannins standing guard on the finish."
