Delicious, elegant. Great long finish of mint, white pepper and blackberry juice.

Earthy and savoury compared to the Barossan just tasted. Cherry Liqueur notes. Satisfying. 17- Had another bottle on 4/9/15. Earthy and mineral. No overt fruit. More savoury. 90 points.

Made by Emily McNally (Ron Laughton from Jasper Hill's daughter). Nose of Cherry Liqueur. Rich and earthy but not overly complex. No need to cellar further IMO. 16.5.

Big wine, complex, and ripe fruits. Maybe past it’s best? Would share.

Unfortunately, past its prime! This is a great drop, but 6 years on it's flaccid, ripe and oxidized. Perfectly cellared, cork perfect, so pretty sure the 2011 is just past it's prime in 2017.

Wow. Big red even now. Pepper and coffee. Just delightful.

A beauty. Complex nose of cherries, leather, tobacco and menthol. Smooth taste - less fruit, more tobacco plus some pepper. Makes me want to smoke a pipe...

Notes of plum and ripe fig. This wine is very smooth and leaves a lasting taste of tobacco on your palate.

A very subtle but well balanced Syrah with a special mid pallet
