"Inky plum colour, damson, hoisin plum, cocoa bean, this is young and deeply concentrated right now, a ton of smoky campfire and grilled rosemary, muscular and fairly subdued but the bones are here. Just needs time to soften and open. Sue Hodder winemaker." (07/2025)

"Quite a smokey, reductive nose at first. Excellent structure, full and wide in the mouth but with soft powdery tannins that grow in structure as time goes on. Wonderfully ripe and rich - blackcurrants, black cherries and cigar smoke. Juicy and sumptuous, this is rich and is something you want to curl up around a hot fire in the winter. Captivating and so well made. Carries lovely flavours but with a moreish element that you just want another glass straight away. Eminently drinkable. Ends stony, fresh, minty with a herbal tinge." - Georgina Hindle (08/2025)
