» Reviews / Awards

"Light, transparent red-purple; an interesting wine, with varietal red fruits to the fore, along with a touch of spice, and more structure than many eastern states equivalents (McLaren Vale honourably excepted). Grenache, with a splash of shiraz - 89 points" James Halliday Companion online - Published on 14 Nov 2012
