Campbell Mattinson 93 points!" Like most Australian wine regions 1998 was excellent in the Nagambie Lakes area. Wonderfully fleshy with gorgeously fine, chewy, dark fruit flavours. Glimpses of earth and leather, game and gingery spice. Like it a lot. Drink: 2007-2016."
Campbell Mattinson " Wine Front
Gary Walsh 94 points!" Aromas of violet, red berry, walnut, leather, licorice, a little mint and plenty of vanilla oak. An amazing smelling wine. On the palate medium to full bodied with sweet red fruit, walnut, licorice, violet and cedar oak. Really lovely flavours. Very strong grippy tannins and clean acidity. A wine of considerably strength but with no heaviness. Finished dry and long with tannins to close. Superb."

eRobertParker.com 94 points!"Tasted at the 150th anniversary vertical at St. John. The 1998 is reticent on the nose at first, but opens up with raspberry coulis, wild strawberry and mocha aromas laced with a pinch of white pepper, mulberry hovering in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine acidity, great balance and precision with pert, peppery red-berried fruit on the finish that linger wonderfully. Excellent."
