97 points!"Attractive perfumed Pinot with strong dark and red cherry, spice/anise and violet flavours. The wine has an ethereal texture with a lingering and seductive finish. Elegant Pinot Noir that gets close to the outstanding."
Gourmet Traveller Wine, June/July 2014
"By definition Cashburn is more immediate and approachable when young compared to the BCV itself, offering a brighter lighter spectrum cherry/strawberry fruits, but as we've noted previously this is backed plenty of earthy, mushroomy savoury notes as well that make the offering (a) unmistakably 'Burn Cottage' and (b) irresistibly Central Otago at its most 'pinoty' . Particularly evident with this 2012 release it's definitely not lacking in intensity and is all about finesse and drinkability, with silky tannins, oak barely visible if at all. There's a depth of power and concentration to this, but absolutely and only in a most 'feminine' way " reminiscent of a charming young, pure and pristine Burgundy. This is a very serious Pinot in its own right."
