Russ Gallagher, Vinomasters – 98 Points
Deep inky-purple with a bright crimson rim, showing excellent concentration and graceful maturity.
The nose is powerful yet refined, revealing vibrant blackberry and ripe mulberry compote layered with savoury roasted nuts, black olive, dark chocolate and integrated oak.
On the palate this is a luxury Cabernet of real presence and poise. Intense dark fruit drives the core, supported by fine, polished tannins and beautifully integrated oak. It delivers impressive persistence, savoury complexity and a seamless balance between power and elegance, finishing long and refined with lingering black fruit, olive and nutty nuance.
A standout, high-class Cabernet Sauvignon that combines intensity, sophistication and excellent drinking pleasure.
★★★★★ Powerful, elegant and luxurious
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit – 96 Points
Rich and complex, showing blackcurrant, dried herb, cured meat, fennel, and cedar characters. The wonderfully weighted palate offers excellent depth and presence, splendidly supported by silky texture and beautifully infused tannins, finishing long and satisfying. At its best: now to 2035.

Always good to see wines which have been allowed to mature in the wineries’ cellars before release. This one is under Diam. The colour is opaque maroon/black. On the nose, an array of aromas including blackberries, aniseed, leather, cassis, cloves, soy, beef stock and chinotto. The texture is supple and seductive, there is good energy and the wine is still fresh. Excellent balance and length, the wine finishes with silky tannins. It will provide enormous pleasure over the next ten to fifteen years
