... immensely rich fruit, yet doesn't smash it with too much oak or scar it with too much tannin. The texture of this wine is like velvet - an overused phrase - but this time it's true. The flavours wash over your tongue, they caress your palate and linger long after you've swallowed. And those flavours? Sweet mint leaves, lush blackberry, finely focused blackcurrants rubbed with eucalyptus oil, all this in a cocoon of coconut and chocolate cream.
Learn MoreMade by the unflappable Javier Murua. Almost entirely tempranillo but co-fermented with a smidge of grenache. Sees a small portion of old French and American oak. Elegant yet characterful and then punchy through the finish. Has structure. Has a big dry finish. Licorice and cherry and twiggy sinewy almost-bitter notes. Chicory too. A grunty wine. Will be a handy drinking option through the cooler months. Like it. 90 points Winefront
Learn More.. Wonderfully generous palate is ripe and slippery but not sweet. Not hard to like a juicy, ripe, no-nonsense Vale Shiraz like this. 17.5/91 points Australian Wine Review
... meat, spice and dark fruits on the nose ... and soft silky tannins with a long finish. Polished and fascinating. 93 points James Suckling
...enticing rather than overbearing and it lingers beautifully on the finish. A fine wine for the price .... Winingpom
... Has an earthy goodness about it too. Benefits from a quick slosh in the decanter. Excellent red wine. Rated : 92 Points Winefront
Learn MoreI don’t know what they’re doing at Kirrihill – but they’re not making a $20 wine. - OK, so it needs some time. The acid needs to settle, the tannin needs to relax, it all just needs to knit together some more. But the purity of fruit – blackcurrant, dust, brambly blackberries – and the firm seriousness of the finish mark it clearly as something other than a mere quaffer. A touch of chocolatey oak completes the picture. Good bones here. Rated : 92+ Points Winefront.com.au
Learn MoreDisciples of this fabled label will fondly recall the precision of 2004, the concentration of 1990 and the savoury appeal of 1987 and 1989. 2010 encapsulates all there is to love about this blend: density of black fruits, light-footed elegance, vibrant, lively, cabernet-led fruit lift, lingering violet perfume and finely textured tannins.” Wine Taste Tyson Stelzer, Mar 2012 94 points
Learn More... There's a consistency across the reds from the flagship Old Adam to the Tamblyn blend, and all show excellent regional character. The current vintage is up with the best of the Selkirks: vibrant, ripe redcurrant and dark plum flavours; well-integrated vanillin oak; fleshy, almost syrupy texture, before a lively, approachable finish.
