JM 1ST APPROACH

Deep golden tawny with slight red hues. Fresh clean and spicy fruit with integrated vanillin oak and rancio derived from the oak maturation.

Round and full with spice and fruit combined with a nutty complexity. The finish is balanced with wonderfully integrated spirit, clean and fresh. Learn More

This wine reflects the up & coming Shiraz vineyards of the Barossa, rather than the battle hardened old vines which make up the core of our other cuvees.

Dense, rich and opulent, this wine combines great fruit purity with texture, complexity and finesse. Whilst offering immense pleasure in its youth the 2011 Woodcutter's Shiraz will no doubt develop beautifully. Learn More

Medium to deep crimson in colour with purple hue. Ripe Satsuma plums and mulberry fruits fill the nostrils with lovely creamy vanilla, chocolate and hints of smoke, violets and citrus. Bright, juicy, plum and mulberry fruits flow onto the palate which is medium bodied. The sweet fruit is well balanced with silky tannins, good acidity, briary and sweet spice. A nice long finish tapers from sweet fruit through spice and citrus to end with a little dark chocolate.

A long and very tight finish. Delicious wine, and will improve (quite a lot I think) with a little sleep in the cellar! Is a really good and very interesting wine that will develop into something even more in 3-5 years. Its that old expression, a food wine, really comes alive with some great tapas, grills of meat dishes.  The auswine panel

... deep, alluring and well-defined black cherry and sweet black plum and blackberry fruits, nuanced with cola, liquorice and high cocoa dark chocolate." 95 points, Tyson Stelzer, Wine Taste Weekly
...  I can’t think of too many I’d reach for ahead of this ...  This wine feels fine on the tongue but it doesn’t lack fruit. Beautifully well balanced. Complex. And long. Gold medal standard. 94 points Winefront
Pete Schell's 2010 reds exemplify the cutting edge of the modern Barossa style - exotic spice interwoven with polished black fruits of controlled magnitude and captivating textural structure. This skilfully fuses brittle mataro to a fleshy core of shiraz. Rating: 5 out of 5 stars 'Top class' Taste Top 100 wines

it fairly glides along though the mouth, finishing long and sweet. Subtle savoury elements and brown spices too. Typical Barossa Grenache. High quality at the price and a very good drink. 92 points Winefront.com.au

Excellent vitality and drinkability. Blackberries, cranberries, sap and smoke. Has that ashen, meaty note so characteristic of cool vintages like 2002 and 2011. Has enough sweetness though to keep Barossa shiraz drinkers happy. Enough slurpy, smooth texture. Clovey, peppery, licoricey finish. Compact and complex. Great wine to hook into.
