"Creamy, black and blue fruits studded with silky tannins and fragrant freshly cut herb aromatics. This is deft and skilful, soft notes of grilled oak, well integrated acidities, appealing and easy to love. Paul Hobbs owner, Diana Fornasero winemaker at this 11ha no-till vineyard. Whole cluster winemaking retains juice and character, from the upper reaches of the Chanares vineyard, granite-dominant soils." (07/2025)

"Potpourri incense aromatics, so floral and fragrant. Thick and glossy, there’s succulence and high acidity with plenty of freshness but there’s also plenty of heft and this delivers a broad and filling palate. On the richer side, despite the cooling, fresh acidity. It’s a showy and confident wine that really delivers plenty of enjoyment. Sticky liquorice on the finish with lashings of oak and bitter chocolate. A Malbec with personality. Easy to like this! Owner Paul Hobbs, winemaker Andres Vignoni." - Georgina Hindle (07/2025)
