• Gourmet Traveller Wine: October/November 2005
  ”This Shiraz Cabernet was, for me, easily the standout. Bursting with youthful energy and flavour, it is bright pruple, full of light raspberry and spice flavour and has a sweetish, supple texture in the mouth. Its simply, yes, but at eight bucks an bottle, it offers a fair whack of flavour” – Max Allen
