Chaffey Bros Omnia Nova Barossa Nouveau Old Vine Syrah 2021
92 Point Rated - Dave Brookes Halliday Wine Companion
"A medium bodied, deliciously plush mashup of syrah from the Eden and Barossa Valleys, 17% whole bunches contributing exotic spice, amaro herbs and a touch of sinew to the tannin frame. Despite eight months in seasoned barrel, oak plays no major role in this wine and fruit and spice reign supreme, tending savoury on the persistent finish."

92 Point Rated - Campbell Mattinson The Wine Front
"Omnia Nova – all become new – is old vine Barossa shiraz made in a ‘nouveau’ style. It spends a brief stint in oak before promptly going into bottle and into the world.
It has that ‘just made’ feel to it. It’s like tasting direct from a barrel/tank at a winery; it has that uber freshness, that ribald fruitiness, that blinding immediacy. It’s a wonderful impression for a wine to make. Plums, cloves, mints and assorted sweet spice characters make for a high energy, highly delicious red wine. Yes please. It’s a great drink. ‘Nuff said."

92 Point Rated - James Suckling
" A peppery and energetic shiraz with notes of peppercorns, fresh blackberries, thyme and bay leaves. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity and fine tannins providing a fresh and precise frame."

91 Point Rated - Huon Hooke The Real Review
"Very deep, dense purple/red colour. An extreme bouquet of super-concentrated fruit, black plum and blackberry with a smoky nutty overlay, the palate also very concentrated and bold, a bit raw to drink now, with lashings of tannin and mouth-coating properties. This will turn out very well, it just needs more time."

Wakefield Taylors Family Wines Jaraman Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
94 Point Rated & 5 Stars Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"It's gorgeously fragrant on the nose, showing cassis, blueberry, fennel and violet notes with a whiff of cigar. The palate displays excellent weight and refined texture, wonderfully framed by fine, chalky tannins. It's bold and structured yet with plush mouthfeel, offering terrific drinking. At its best: now to 2036"

93 Point Rated - Bob Campbell The Real Review
"Dense wine with a core of sweetness that almost balances the slightly bitter phenolics evident on the finish. Taut, tight wine with potential for bottle development."

Mike Bennie Halliday Wine Companion
"Lots of choc mint, indeed the palate almost piquant with mintiness, the aromas more grounded in dark fruits, woody spice. The balance is ok, the wine feels a bit thin but you could say easy drinking too. A bit one dimensional, indeed, a simple wine, but in sweet fruit and generic cabernet land, this could please a legion."

95 Point Rated & 5 Stars Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"A gorgeous rendition of the variety, showing blackcurrant, cedary oak, dried herb and toasted spice aromas, followed by a finely expressed palate that's succulent and supple. Wonderfully framed by layers of chalky tannins, finishing harmonious and persistent. At its best: now to 2036. $130.00."

Curtis Family Martins Vineyard Limited McLaren Vale Shiraz 2020
97 Point Rated - Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"This is gloriously rich and enticing with blackberry, warm spice, tapenade and cedary oak characters on the nose. The palate is equally impressive, displaying outstanding weight and power combined with velvety mouthfeel, finishing superbly long and delicious. At its best: now to 2040. $150.00"

96 Point Rated - Ken Gargett Wine Pilot
"This wine is part of a limited series of McLaren Vale Shiraz and for me, perhaps the most impressive in the range – which is saying something as it has plenty of competition. Vibrant purple in colour, this offers a lovely seductive nose, which is deeply flavoured with blackberry notes, plums, boot leather, bergamot, black cherries and spices. Hints of oak but melding well. Dense in structure though well balanced at all times, this is very long and has satiny tannins in abundance. It should sail through a decade in the cellar, though is drinking well now. Simply a cracking McLaren Vale Shiraz. Price: $150.00; Alcohol: 14.5%"

96 Point Rated - Patrick Eckel 

"This is a classy McLaren Vale Shiraz and seems to defy what was more of a challenging vintage. The nose shows brooding dark plum and blackberry fruit that is amply supported by a swathe of brown spices and dark chocolate. The impact of incredible quality oak in undeniable on the nose, however the way it folds into the textured plum and black cherry fruit on the palate is seamless; tannins are fine and firm as is the acidity but in near perfect balance with the drive and influence of the fruit. The finish has a touch of leather to textured black fruits and lingering spice. Will live a long time."
