"...this is a mighty Adelaide Hills shiraz" - Tyson Stelzer 94 Points!

"With his vines now 20 years of age, Mike Press has elevated his shiraz this vintage to a style more about fruit ripeness and less about oak, though – crucially – without downplaying the cool climate credentials of his special, high site.
Mike was nervous he’d taken it too far, but he need not fear: this is a mighty Adelaide Hills shiraz that will enthral his band of loyal followers with its deep, luscious and adorable black cherry, black plum and blackberry fruit, with the presence and stature that will win some new fans, too. It doesn’t demand the length of bottle age that it’s called for in the past, but don’t underestimate its potential, because it’s charged with the tangy acid and fine tannin structure to hold its own for many years yet. 94 points Drink 2018-2026"
"Regular readers will be well familiar with my now 12 year conviction that Mike Press makes the best value wines in the country from his beautiful little vineyard high in the Adelaide Hills. I first visited Mike and Judy at their place in 2006 and I’ve been buying their wines every year since. I now have 12 vintages of their shiraz and cabernet in my cellar.
With vines now hitting 20 years of age and Mike’s sensitivity in the cellar continuing to mellow, his wines have never looked finer. He’s out of favour with some of his peers because his wines keep beating theirs in the wine shows! His wines sell for less than half the price of theirs."
