Let’s start here with a moment to praise the 2021 vintage, which has given this wine an auspicious head start. There’s an enticing depth to the nose, a glimpse of mint and a helpful backdrop foundation of older oak, suggesting further interest to follow. And it does, the palate well connected and seamless, sweet fruit and subtle spice savouriness asking and answering in tasteful harmony. 93 points. Tony Love, Wine Journalist

Notes
Good ground cover formed from winter rains bolstered the vineyards through a warm and dry spring. Problem free flowering led to even berry development and a stable and relatively easy vintage. Natural acidity was once again the gift of the cool lake breeze. Langhorne Creek had cooler nights than the coolest parts of the Adelaide Hills and this meant a long growing season. We were still harvesting until mid-April. The above average yields are a blessing as the fruit is amazing.
The Shiraz was de-stemmed, crushed and pumped over twice a day for ten days. The wine was matured in older oak barrels for twelve months prior to bottling. Matured 12 months in second use French and American oak hogsheads. 2nd & 3rd year barrels.
To the eye it is all impenetrable, opaque purple. Aromas of fresh boysenberry and homemade plum jam are accented by classic cinnamon, liquorice and black pepper. The palate is fresh, lively and layered with dark forest fruits. Well-integrated tannins carry the fruit through to a long finish. Enjoy now and over the next decade.
