Feb 26th, 2017Dusty ripe notes with raspberries cherries and plenty of oak just matching the massive fruit flavours which you would expect at 15.5% Alc. A Big wine with softening tannins and low acid. Right to drink now. Enjoyable! 2008 vintage. Always thought McLaren Vale Grenache better than the Barossa but this is excellent.

Jan 21st, 2024A really great Grenache from Barossa, more full bodied than you would expect but plenty of spice, jam and fruit flavour. High alcohol but doesn’t overpower the wine. Enjoying the wines from this producer.

Sep 21st, 2019Utterly splendid expression of old vine Grenache. Black fruit and tobacco on the nose. Red fruit and star anise with hints of spice. Medium finish, with subtle amount of acidity.
