"Characterised by its huge, swaggering tannin and strong, eucalypt-like flavour " smelling it is like sitting under a big peppermint gum at the height of summer. Drinking it then is like chewing on a fistful of blackcurrants and gumleaves " you will need to be highly eucalyptus-tolerant to enjoy this wine. All that outlined, it is still an excellent wine " curranty, dusty, tannic and very persitent. I don't like eucalypt in wine so I didn't want to like this, but I couldn't help but come down decisively in its favour. "

"Deeply flavoured, firm and drying, this dark and minty cabernet has a sweet fragrance of cassis mulberries, plums and cedar/vanilla oak lifted by nuances of dried herbs and menthol. Smooth and silky, it's long, intense palate of dark berry/plum fruit is woven around a robust rod-like backbone and tightly knit with cedary oak, finishing with length and balance."
Jeremy Oliver, The Wine Annual 2011
