Awards and/or Press Quotes
 |
|
| Wine Enthusiast | 90 Points. ‘Perfumey, this lusty Zin is also structured and juicy, offering plenty of jammy blackberry and cherry to keep a palate coming back for more. Powerfully built, it’ll stand up to chunks of meat very well.’ |
| Wine Spectator | 90 Points. ‘Ripe and plush, this is well made for the style. Cherry pie aromas open to lively flavours of jammy raspberry, cinnamon and toasted spice. A crowd-pleaser. Drink now through 2021.’ |
