<p><b>89 points</b> - Medium to pale purple red with a forward tawny meniscus. The aromas are integrated, blackberry and spice driven. The palate is a little skinny, lightly extracted and lacking in body. There is some gritty, sandy tannin that is a bit floaty and loosely knit, wholebunchy.</p><p>Tasted on Fri, Nov 14, 2025.</p>

<p><b>93 points</b> - Deep and saturated purple. Deep set purple and blue berry fruit, quite powerful and extracted. A serious wine with length and presence. Needs time.</p><p>Tasted on Wed, Sep 17, 2025.</p>

<p><b>93 points</b> - Medium dark purple, looking like a young wine. Bright cherry fruit aromas dominating at the moment. Unevolved right now, but needs another 2-3 years to be approachable. Good tannins and acidity. This will rate higher later.</p><p>Tasted on Wed, Sep 17, 2025.</p>

<p><b>94 points</b> - Deep purple red. Cherry fruit. Nice and expressive and fruit driven. Powerful, weighty in style, good extraction. Very good and needs time to develop complexity. Juicy, chunky and moreish.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Sep 16, 2025.</p>

<p><b>90 points</b> - Difficult cyclone affected vintage. Herbal aromas, whole bunch, red grapefruit. The palate is sinewy, that and tannic in style. A brawny style.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Sep 16, 2025.</p>
