98 Point Point Rated - James Halliday Halliday Wine Companion 

"Hand picked from 100-year-old vines; crushed to an open top fermenter for 10 days on skins, thence pressed to French hogsheads (45% new) for 24 months' maturation. This is a ravishingly beautiful wine, with a perfumed red and blue fruit bouquet promising a glorious palate that reflects all the decisions at every point along the way have been exactly chosen to deliver a wine that airily floats across the journey from vine to glass. Only 500 dozen made, which is a pity."

97 Point Rated - Ray Jordan Wine Pilot 

"Its a pure essence of the Barossa...Leave it in the glass and see how all that richness and power gradually release"

95 Point Rated - Andrew Caillard The Vintage Journal 

"Inky deep palate with plentiful dark plum, blackberry, praline flavours, fine bittersweet tannins and underlying roasted walnut notes. Finishes chocolaty with persistent fresh acidity"

94 Point Rated - Huon Hooke The Real Review 

"Very deep, dense red-purple colour; the powerful bouquet expresses black coffee, dark chocolate, prune, walnut, vanilla and charred oak characters, the palate very full-bodied and powerful, with emphatic tannins and a long and gripping aftertaste. A massive wine which needs several years and will be very long-lived. Some spirity alcohol afterglow is well within bounds. (100th anniversary of the vineyard)"
