“Remarkably aromatic, sure-footed but fine-boned, it's mesmerising… Can we taste in colour? This wine makes it feel as though we can.” - The Australian Wine Companion, 96 points
We read the review below and felt we had to order some without tasting it first. We don’t normally do that, it’s not our normal modus operandi, but time was of the essence, as it would have all been allocated elsewhere if we dithered, so here it is for you to try. For once, don’t take our word for it…
The Australian Wine Companion: “A union of the site and Gareth Belton's respect for it, this is a wine with heart and soul. Remarkably aromatic, sure-footed but fine-boned, it's mesmerising in its approach and carries a bouquet of romance – dried roses, strawberry and clove. The concentration here is to be revered, can we taste in colour? This wine makes it feel as though we can. Lustrous sour cherry, mushroom broth and the tug of twiggy influence. Deft and thoughtfully made, this is elevated and notable drinking from the Hills.” 96 points
