<p><b>95 points</b> - Dark purple. Blackberry and coal dust on the nose. A dense bouquet. On the palate dark chocolate, coal and creamy, dense tannins of the highest quality. The wine needs time to open up and probably another 3-6 years to reach maturity.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Nov 10, 2024.</p>

<p><b>95 points</b> - Powerful, hazelnutty style of chardonnay. Reductive, chicken stock aromas. Good shape and poise. There is concentration and focus here. Seriousness and power. Lengthy.</p><p>Tasted on Mon, Oct 14, 2024.</p>

<p><b>93 points</b> - Over the hill - mainly oak left. Takes a long time to open up. Was best 3 years ago? Needs and hour to open up. Later: nutty buttery. A little too rounded out. Needs a bit more acidity. But a lot going on.</p><p>Tasted on Mon, Oct 14, 2024.</p>

<p><b>92 points</b> - Full bodied and pleasant drinking. Not as intense as the best pinots - perhaps a tad too much acidity harming the overall balance. Great value wine.</p><p>Tasted on Sat, Sep 16, 2023.</p>

<p><b>96 points</b> - Dark purple. A bit of graphite. Smooth balance with hints of coffee. Superb acidity keeping this wine fresh.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Jul 5, 2022.</p>

<p><b>96 points</b> - Medium dark purple red. Restrained, some bluecurrant aromas. Dense and beautifully balanced, lush, tightly knit. The tannins ripe and woven and effortless. Total harmony.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Jul 5, 2022.</p>

<p><b>95 points</b> - Dark medium red purple. Briar. Smooth Savoury tones on the palate. Slight mineral undertone, well integrated palate: Nothing sticks out here.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Jul 5, 2022.</p>

<p><b>91 points</b> - Deep and concentrated colour, but showing no obvious signs of age. This is a big, old fashioned McLaren Vale red - high in alcohol and tannins, but drinking well at 17 years of age now that it has mellowed. This wine is probably at its peak now and won't get any better. A little disappointing given its original price tag, but a good traditional aged Aussie red all the same.</p><p>Tasted on Sat, May 1, 2021.</p>
