Reviews and Ratings

Brent Gushowaty rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Eye:
Ruby/mauve. Pale/medium depth.

Nose:
Nice cherry, pomegranate/beet/plum, also violet/vanilla.

Palate:
Wow. As on nose, red fruits, beet root, some floralness. Rounded fruit concentration, cinnamon/vanilla, long, complex fruit finish. Lots going on here with good balance and supporting acidity. Hold for 3-5 years minimum if you can. Will develop.

Value Rating: 90

Other Information:
The grapes are from two small blocks within the Home Block – #2 (planted in 1991) and #4 (planted in 1995). For the 2011 Vintage the two blocks were released as separate bottlings.

The wine spent 16 months in French oak. Made from clones 114, 115, 667, and 777.

559 cases produced.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
