"The potency of these wines to develop gracefully over time is a feature, as is their complexity with maturity. World class - combines floral, stone fruit and citrus flavours." Robert Geddes, Master of Wine, Author, Australian Wine Vintages
Freycinet is quite a remarkable winery. Hit after hit.  This has body and complexity but it's the length through the finish that really impresses. It tastes of green herbs, red apples, grapefruit and spice and even in its youth it keeps you dodging and weaving to catch all that's going on. 94 points Winefront.com.au

Deep, vivid, colour; a no-holds-barred full-bodied shiraz with black fruits, licorice and some pepper; tannins and oak are built to size for the fruit, and 
the palate consequently has considerable length. 94 points James Halliday
Smells fantastic. Garrigue, dark berry fruits, black plums. Sweet, but tinged with potent spice, pepper, wet slate and port-soaked tobacco. Dense, but with a perfumey lift. There's a slinkiness to texture even if the wine offers a lip-smacking, solid mouthful of rich, dark fruit. Potent, but chewy with crisp-feeling tannins, succulent acidity and a big sprinkle of peppery spice. Tannins for days, but fruit meshed through and through. 
Wonderful stuff. 94 points Winefront.com.au

Ripping release. Lime, ginger, dash of pepper, show in big vibrant hit of citrussy fruit scents. It’s racy, ultra lean and tight to taste, but a mouthwatering succulence pulls the wine out of austerity and the light chalky buzz through the finish sets the wine to a higher class. It’s delicious. There’s more citrus, more green apple crispness and a fine etching of sherbetty acidity. Refreshing to the max, with panache.

Oak is part of the seduction and there’s nothing wrong with that. This offers texture, flavour and length at a more than reasonable price. It tastes of melon, lactose, cream and white peach, and is 
both seductive and satisfying.  92 points Campbell Mattinson Winefront.com.au

This is another excellent example. It’s a savoury wine first and foremost, with smoke, twigs and generally reductive notes dominating the initial impression, but cherry-plum fruit comes bounding in, intent on give the party a kick along. Firm, drying tannin is here in abundance too;
it won’t be a short-lived wine. 
It will though please a lot of cool climate shiraz drinkers.  93+ Points Campbell Mattinson Winefront.com.au"

..... It has the full array of cassis, redcurrant, olive and earth expected of this invariably distinguished wine; just let the tannins relax for a year or two. 95 points James Halliday
Lovely aromatics here – seaweed, violets, sweet rubbed spearmint with chocolate, blackberry and cedar/pencil oak in support. Medium to full bodied, ample red and black fruits, chocolate, nuts and tobacco, spiced oak – seductive style, though not bold or too showy – composed and impeccably balanced. Fine grained tannin draws the finish long. Classic Cabernet. 94 points Winefront.com.au"

Nice wine this – feels like essence of Hunter Valley Shiraz. Medium bodied with savoury tannins drawling through the wine. Offers up red fruits, dustiness but not too much, and light, washy acidity keeps things fresh. It might lack some stuffing but it’s pitch-perfect as an example of Hunter and drinkability with savouriness. Crunch and chew in the finish lends a hand.
Better than you think.  91 points Winefront.com.au

Peach, mixed citrus, gentle vanilla and cedar oak and some wheatgerm.Medium bodied, juicy fruit, but with some restraint,  limey acidity offset with a dab of cream and almond. Good length. Acid freshens the aftertaste, but does not twang. 
This is nicely done: meets the modern and traditional schools of Hunter Chardonnay in the middle playground.  90 points Winefront.com.au"

Semillon fruit was hand selected from a number of our premium vineyards. The nose is clean with a hint of lemon richness, the palate continues with fresh citrus and concentrated grapefruit flavours. The finish is pleasing with a balance of fruit and soft acid. A great match to any shellfish. A wine for all occasions lending itself perfectly to seafood dishes. Excellent drinking upon release and will develop in complexity with short term bottle age.
