Reviews and Ratings

Malcolm Lamont - WSET Adv, CSW rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Ruby rim on this southern hemisphere 2010, with plum, cherry, and a rather generic spice coming through subtly on the nose. Nice jammy fruits, specifically strawberry on the palate. Well rounded tannins and body for a 14.3%
Peter rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

I found this wine to be solid with deep plum and strawberry flavors with some pepper and black licorice. It is smooth and balanced, really too much so. It lacks the complexity and bright cherry flavor and sharper acidity I look for in a good Australian Shiraz.

It is a great value and if you like medium-bodied Shiraz you may enjoy it. I just did not find it interesting at all.

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.
