Top Value, Huon Hooke, The Real Review, January 2025. “Medium-light depth of purple-tinted colour, the nose fresh and young with simple sweet raspberry bonbon grenache fruit, uncomplicated by oak, although there are ample tannins to give the wine some ageing potential which would possibly see it build some complexity. Very smart wine in a young, simple style and excellent value.”
2 x Mystery Gem | Frankland River | Shiraz 2021
93 points Sam Kim, WineOrbit, Dec 2022.
"Sweetly fruited and inviting on the nose with spiced cherry, plum, subtle vanilla and assorted nut aromas, it's plump and rounded in the mouth offering ripe fruit intensity with smooth mouthfeel. Silky and lingering with tasty flavours. At its best: now to 2030."
BackVintage Block 8 Shiraz 2021
Top Value, Huon Hooke, The Real Review, January 2025. “Medium-full red to brick-red colour; trace of purple in the rim. Dusty earth/terracotta bouquet, with a whiff of peppercorn and gumleaf in the background. A hint of berry coulis and a trace of toasty vanilla. The wine is medium-bodied and firm with balanced, fine-grained but assertive tannins that leave a dusty finish. Good drinkability and should take a few years of ageing in its stride. Great value.”
Mystery Gem | Coonawarra | Shiraz Cabernet 2019
93 points Sam Kim, WineOrbit, Feb 2024."Beautifully ripe and fragrant, the bouquet shows dark berry, dried herb, warm spice and nutmeg aromas, followed by a generously flavoursome palate delivering fleshy texture backed by finely pitched tannins. Immediately appealing with sweet fruit intensity and spicy nuances. At its best: now to 2031.
BackVintage | Coonawarra | Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
Top Value, Huon Hooke, The Real Review, January 2025. “Deep, bright red with a good tint of purple, the bouquet is fresh and aromatic, fragrant and lovely with a basket of balsamic herbs, including some mint. The wine is rich and fruit-sweet in the core, succulent and deep, with firm and slightly gritty tannins backing up, all in good balance. Remarkable wine at the price.”
