“There’s almost a plush generosity here, but it’s more characterised by its free-flowing air. It writes its flavours in cursive script, everything joined and running into the next thing, a feeling of movement and speed. Kerouac-ian in that sense. A summer held onto and then released in a burst. Forest berries, dry leaves, a chalkiness, a hint of chicory and woodsmoke. It feels like a wholemeal wine, the flavours transparent, nothing deleted.”
Cambell Mattinson, Wine Front, 2016

"Though vintage plays its part in making this year's Yarra Valley different to previous years, the exemplary quality is there. It is almost Nebbiolo-like in the way its palate plays at both high and low frequencies of flavour - violets and bramble fruit flavours are backed by minerality and earthy peat. Drinkable now, this still seems shy, poised to blossum!”
