89 points The West Australian Wine Guide
A poised and stylish cabernet displaying strong varietal characters of blackcurrant with a more lifted raspberry and bright plum. The oak and fruit handling is very good, with the tannin structure neatly supportive. Smooth and Seamless.

90 points Australian Wine Companion
Select harvester with berry sorting in the vineyard, open-fermented with cultured yeast, 10 days on skins, matured for 17 months in French (40% new). Given that the wine is only medium-bodied, the decision to use so much new oak for 17 months, the impact is obvious - less would have been better. On the plus side is the fragrant bouquet and the superfine tannins.
