Cherry, plum, a bit smoky and spicy, plenty of thyme and rosemary, and very Central Otago in that way. It’s medium to full-bodied, a bit of dusty grip to tannin, and some mocha and strawberry, but also a comes over slightly rubbery and bitter, some orange peel in the mix, and quite lively juicy acidity. Length is solid, and kind of grainy in the tannin department. I’d think this will be a better wine with a year or two on it, so it can relax a bit. GARY WALSH, The Wine Front
A pure sweet nose of cherry and strawberry with subtle woody and spice inflections. The palate is notably firmer, as grainy, stalky tannins grip early towards the front, turning to cocoa and cassia as it goes on. Despite these evident secondary characters, the wine is clearly built on its core of mouth-coating, sweet fruit. Lovely fruit concentration of good length, wrapped in sweet oak and a firm coating of structure which will see it develop savoury complexity over the coming decade STEPHEN WONG, The Real Review
