In the latest issue of Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar, Josh Raynolds adds his voice to the critics who have already sung the praises of this iconic Australian wine’s latest incarnation, commenting “Powerful aromas of cassis, blackberry and bitter cherry are complemented by exotic notes of smoky peat, pipe tobacco and violet oil…deeply concentrated…with a sexy floral element…This wine's marriage of depth, spiciness, fruit, meatiness and minerality is extremely impressive…96pts”.
