Trophy “Best Pinot Noir” 2022 WineWise Small Vigneron Awards
“Rich dark cherry fruit features on a powerful nose, and carries through to a long, generous palate built around fine, persistent tannins. Although it satisfies now, this wine will age well.” 5Judge's comments - June, 2023
Master Medal 2023 Global Pinot Noir Masters
One of only four such medals awarded, Siobhan Turner MW (one of the judges) wrote that: "The first of two high medallists from this excellent producer. Deep cherry colour, with complex aromas of blackberry and plum, with an almost velvety character to the nose. It had a hint of vanilla oak spice, perfectly integrated with the fruit elements and just a touch of sous bois. In the mouth it was deep and complex, with a bright acidity, elegant tannins, beautiful integration and long and complex finish. I took the remains of this bottle home with me to share over dinner – for me it was the wine of the day. It went beautifully with our Pasta alla Norma, but might more conventionally be paired with a roast pork or a tuna dish with soy glaze." - June, 2023

97 points The Real Review
“Impressively deep red-purple colour, bright and clear, the bouquet big on dark-cherry to blackberry, bold fruit and not overtly whole-bunchy, while the palate is full and rich and succulent, loaded with lovely ripe cherry/berry fruit and superfine tannins in superb harmony. Long finish; truly satisfying. An outstanding pinot noir with a bright future.” Huon Hooke - June, 2023
Selector Magazine (May/June 2023)
“…gorgeous potpourri plus cherry vanilla baked pie aromatics, with red and dark berries, complex forest floor savouriness and a Chinese five spice lift with lovely length. Gorgeous…Energetic and balanced, this wine exudes class. Wild strawberry and raspberry aromas advance seamlessly into finely textured clove and pepper-tweaked raspberries and blackberries.” - June, 2023
92 points Halliday Wine Companion
“Bright cherry in hue with inviting aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry, exotic spice, earth, pressed flowers and curing meats. Pure, creamy oak flows in on the palate as the fruit segues a little dark and moodier, with stalky spice in the background and a deep earthy resonance to its form. Tannins both tight and fine lend ample support and structure, finishing long with no shortage of power.” Dave Brookes
