What the critics said

Gold, 95 points, NZ International Wine Show, September 2026

93 points, 5 stars, Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, April 2026

"Sweetly ripe with stylish complexity, the wine shows dark cherry, wild strawberry, mushroom, cured meat, and toasted almond characters. It's succulent and plump in the mouth, delivering a silky flow, beautifully structured by polished tannins, with a velvety, persistent finish."
