CRITIC REVIEWS
James Suckling
The regional stamp of minty and leafy aromas is strong here, as is the stream of redder-toned berry flavors and a fine, long and linear spine of tannin. Drink over the next decade.
Anthony Rose
Deep ruby red in colour, this is showing distinctively spicy, minty aromas with a strong hit of cinnamon and camphor spice derived from 25% new French oak and the cool climate. Its clearly cooler climate and distinctively Coonawarra on the palate, with its telltale spicy and minty dark berry fruit quality, while the finely textured, tight tannins bring a framework of supportive, savoury acidity. It makes this regional single-varietal red approachable relatively early, yet with good potential for ageing. Pair with roast or grilled chicken. Chicken livers are also a good option here.
