Critic Scores

18.5/20 – Matthew Jukes, matthewjukes.com

With an excellent nose, that is unmistakably Coonawarra – that is why you might choose to drink this wine and so you might as well embrace these famous traits and make them sing. Bright, open, dark, plummy, spicy, and with hints of white pepper and mint, this is a fascinating wine that manages to combine old traits and modernism in one glass. Drink 2028 – 2038. 14.5% alc

16/20 – Jancis Robinson MW, jancisrobinson.com

Dark purplish crimson. Light but zesty, refreshing nose. Drying finish. Quite a punishing, tannic drink at the moment. It may well blossom but I wouldn’t open it for a while. Drink 2025 – 2035. 14.5% alc

92/100 – Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate

The 2021 Bin 128 Coonawarra Shiraz is blue-fruited and spicy, with blueberry compote, salted licorice, blackberry bramble and olive tapenade. In the mouth, the fruit is powered by an effusive wall of soft, pillowy tannin, and there's lovely length through the finish (shaved fennel/garden mint through here). It's pure and blue and spicy. It matured for 12 months in French oak hogsheads (21% new). Drink 2023 – 2035. 14.5% alc
