Robert Parker 94 points!“The first vintage since 1952 to be made from 100% Shiraz, this wine exhibited a fabulously complex nose of smoked meats, Asian spices, sweet, earthy scents, underbrush, licorice, charcoal, black currant, and plum. The wine is very full-bodied, very sweet, creamy-textured with opulence, a load of glycerin, and a seamlessness. Even some blackberry fruit is still present in this fabulously rich, fully mature, yet vigorous wine. It should continue to drink well for up to another decade. A great Grange!”

Jeremy Oliver 95 points!“ Fullish browning red, with a meaty, smoky bouquet with a pruney, tarry aspect to its sweet aromas of chestnuts and chocolates. Powerful and assertive, retaining plenty of intensity and fruit sweetness, with intense, licorice-like flavours of plums and prunes finishing nutty and savoury with leathery complexity. There’s a metallic edge to the tannins, which detracts marginally.”
Jeremy Oliver, OnWine
Campbell Mattinson 95 points!“Honeyed leather, softness, herbs, kirsch, full of finesse, full of clean, pure, aged goodness. Long, lingering, lively, lovely. Hit of tar and roses on the finish. Gorgeous.”
Campbell Mattinson, Wine Front August – October 2007
