What The Critics Say
98/100 The Weekend Australian, James Halliday
"From the earliest plantings (in 1987) of the estate. It begins piling on points with the bright, clear colour and doesn't stop with the bouquet of blackcurrant, bay leaf and airy spices, then flowing on in elegant, medium-bodied mode to a perfectly balanced and mouth-watering finish. Something quite special in its Margaret River context."
95/100 James Suckling
"Attractive aromas of blackcurrants, dark chocolate, cedar, dark spices and pine cones. Hints of cigar box, too. Medium- to full-bodied, steady and focused with mineral chalky freshness. Firm and structured but refined and sleek. Balanced and vivid. Well made. Drink or hold. Screw cap."
94+/100 RobertParker.com, Erin Larkin
"2021 was a really challenging season for grape growing in Margaret River, in large part due to two cyclone weather events that pushed precipitation down the west coast of Australia. With significant rainfall in February and March, viticulturists were put under major strain in terms of managing the effects of rain in the vineyards. The 2021 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is light-framed and pretty, loaded with violets and raspberries, the tannins defined by a raw cocoa edge. This is an earlier-drinking proposition than many of the wines in the lineup. It is actually a remarkable wine in the context of the season. Pretty! This is charming and lighter than its older siblings—the oak regime was tailored to suit the year. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap." Drink 2023 - 2039
