By the early Eighties it was already winning awards, and had begun establishing a reputation as one of the finest wineries in the region. "
Nice spicy chocolatey dark fruits nose showing distinctive black fruit character. The palate has a lovely fresh, peppery edge to the ripe, dark fruits with some nice savouriness. Stylish. 89/100 Jamie Goode, The Wine Anorak. A steal

Elsewhere $20. Made by Howard Park Wines from the excellent 2007 vintage. Reduced to clear. "An elegant wine showing clearly defined cabernet aromatics, lovely fine grained tannins flow through on a long smooth and slighly savoury finish. Great W.A. buying.
