- 95 Points – Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion
This highly fragrant release from the Huon Valley displays a brilliant ruby clarity, showcasing a remarkably vibrant, red-fruit-dominant profile for this vintage. The nose is highly alluring, defined by high-toned pippy raspberry, wild strawberry, and red plum over a darker foundation of black cherry, complex star anise, and judiciously integrated oak. Air reveals further intricacies of rose petals, dried citrus rind, charcuterie, and a light touch of reductive flint.
In his review for the Halliday Wine Companion, Dave Brookes praised its architecture, highlighting that it possesses "just the right amount of buoyancy and space here." It seamlessly blends pure fruit with gamey, complex elements and leaf litter, delivering a sophisticated, layered profile that glides effortlessly into a long, mineral-driven finish.
