EXPERTS:
“Liquorice and black jelly bean, black and red fruit, spicy oak and tobacco. Medium to full bodied, grainy tannin and savoury tobacco and black olive flavours, slightly too tangy acidity, and a pretty long finish with a kind of dried rose perfume. Good stuff. Has a little bit of X-factor in the mix.” –G. Walsh, winefront.com.au
92 / 100 Points

“A blend of Grenache and Syrah, this red offers cured beef, beef bouillon, ripe black cherry, smoke and spice notes that mix on the complex and intriguing nose. The palate is rich and plush without being heavy, and perfectly balances the savoury flavours with the ripe fruit character. This producer is always a solid choice.” –C. & E. Henderson | Vines
