JAMES SUCKLING 96 Points As the label says, this is old vine shiraz and it shows with plum, mushroom, earth, and moss aromas and flavors. It’s full-bodied with round and velvety tannins and a flavorful finish. Strawberry, dark cherry, meat and spice at the end. Real shiraz character. Why wait? Drink now. Screw cap. jamessuckling.com, 13 October, 2022 STUART KNOX 93 Points Deep and intense ruby-red hue. Mulberry, violets and pepper aromas. Dark fruits drive the palate, some savoury dark-mineral notes are seen along with a hint of exotic spice but it’s the intense fruit that is the star here. Fine and supple tannins guide it to the long finish. A lot to like here and a great example of the purity of fruit the region can present. The Real Review, 15 March, 2022
