This is part of their growers series and a blend of both the Heathcote and Harcourt vineyards. There is a sense of reserve that runs through all their red wines that I liked. It displayed plenty of black fruits including plum, black cherries and blackberry, some slight raisin and herbal notes as well. This wine has that characteristic ‘light touch’ on the moreish, savoury, slightly leafy medium plus bodied palate. To round out the wine it has a dry, powdery tannic finish

Vintage: 2022
Rating: Highly Recommended
RRP: $38
Ratings Key:
Outstanding (Score range 95-100)
Often an internationally recognised, leading brand or winery – but not always! Produces a classic wine that is a faultless representation of the style/variety. Complexity on the nose and a seamless palate are an example of the hallmarks of an outstanding wine.
Highly Recommended (Score range 92-94)
A quality focused wine that has plenty of style. Length of palate and intensity are often key characteristics of highly recommended wines. These producers could be the ones to watch in the future.
Recommended (Score range 89-91)
An above average well-made, reflection of the style/variety, which often represents good value for money.
