<p><b>91 points</b> - Deep rich purple red. Leathery, spicy, blackberry and subtle mint notes in the nose. Nicely fleshed out, the fruit is sweet and expressive, cherry cola-like, cloves and other woody spices. Spritely acidity enlivens the finish while the tannins are fine and integrated well. Moreish!</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Feb 15, 2026.</p>

<p><b>90 points</b> - Medium red purple. Nose of blueberries with that vegetal green tone. Cola, fine spices amidst a fresh light acidity dancing on the medium weight palate. The tannins are fine, the wine drinking very well right now. A versatile entertainer matching a gamut of different foods, from spiced Asian rice to fried seafood.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Feb 15, 2026.</p>

<p><b>90 points</b> - Dark purple red. Quaffable Allrounder. Some wood input perceptible. Raspberry and confectionery sugar as the primary fruit components owing to the Grenache.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Jan 18, 2026.</p>

<p><b>89 points</b> - Dark purple red. Seamless floral and blue fruited aromas, think blueberries, cassis, mulberry. The fruit follows in the palate, nicely weighted, tannins tight and grippy, some barnyard floor characteristics, savoury in the finish.</p><p>Tasted on Sat, Jan 17, 2026.</p>

<p><b>95 points</b> - Medium light purple red. Effusive aromas blossom in the glass, sour cherry, rose like florals, spicy and detailed. Very beautiful. Medium bodied with really good presence, a winning concentration of flavours interwoven through this peppery, chalky structure. A really attractive and fragrant grenache, stylish and emblematic of the new wave in Australia.</p><p>Tasted on Wed, Jan 14, 2026.</p>

<p><b>94 points</b> - Medium to light red purple. Strawberry nose with faint spices. Palate has forest aromas, confectionery sugar in the background. Dust. A refined, delicate wine with lots of interest and complexity. Drinking beautifully now.</p><p>Tasted on Wed, Jan 14, 2026.</p>

<p><b>93 points</b> - Light yellow straw colour. Tight and concentrated. Nice intensity and persistence if not the same level of body and textural interest as the Tempier.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Dec 16, 2025.</p>
