Tyson Stelzer (winecompanion.com.au): 92 points “Hailing from a distinguished address on the western side of Tanunda, these old merlot vines produce a succulent style of exotic allure and supple tannin structure. Spicy, fleshy red fruits fill merlot’s characteristic plump mid palate, accented with its classic rose petal nuances. Signature merlot and unmistakably Barossan. Drink by 2024. “

Ageing potential: Vibrant and fruit intense when consumed younger but the wine can be enjoyed over the next 5-8 years.
