Colin McKone rated this wine as 94/100 with the following review:

Dark purple with overflowing with aromas of cassis, black cherry, black pepper, cedar, mint, blackberry and dark chocolate. The flavours on the plate match up to the promise of the aromas with loads of blackfruit and pepper leading into a nice long finish. It is full bodied with well intergrated tannins, acidity and alcohol. This will match perfectly with a grilled steak, prime rib or BBQ ribs. If you are looking to splurge and reward yourself you won't go wrong with this Aussie Shiraz. (Tasted on March 26, 2017)

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
