Halliday Wine Companion
 
"56/44% pinot/syrah. Fermented separately with some whole bunches (for the syrah) and a short élevage in seasoned puncheons and barriques. A very bright crimson purple. Springs from the glass with violets, cherries, raspberries and a touch of Sichuan pepper. A juicy yet focused and delicious mouthful with satiny tannins. The bargain red wine in the portfolio." - Philip Rich

"A 50/50% mix of upper and lower Yarra fruit. Fermented with mainly whole berries and matured in French oak (10% new). A bright ruby crimson. Expressive with aromas of satsuma plums, strawberry coulis, fennel seeds and a hint of star anise. With its core of ripe yet well-delineated fruit and firm-ish, balanced tannins, this is more concentrated and muscular than the 2021. It will age well, too, for those that find themselves with a bottle seven to 10 years from now." - Philip Rich

Ripe plum and cherry fruit, hints of spice, smooth tannins, and a satisfying finish.

Medium purple with pink hues. Bright cherry, violets and red current on the nose with touches of cinnamon, clove and cardamom. Sweet spice entry with red cherries, raspberries and a supple, savoury mid palate. Nice fine-grained tannins, complex palate with a flinty minerality and a long savoury flourish to finish.

Rich, ripe blackberry and plum fruit, earthy spice, and firm tannins. Powerful and age-worthy.

The nose shows delicate red fruit aromas, dusty oak and the ethereal pinot perfume.

The palate has sweet upfront fruit but finishes dry and savoury showing its tight structure.

Generous richness flavour concentration. Layers of ripe fruit, floral and spice unfold on the palate with a delicate tannin line
