The fruit has the mouth entry of an aged wine. As it begins to set on the palate, the fruits reveal their true age. They are soft, gentle and slightly sour. Plum, rhubarb, figs, cherries, blackberries and the ripe raspberries come on during the long finish. M+ tannins, red dry roses and violets and nice acid on the finish. — 9 years ago

NV Sparkling Shiraz. Basket press. Dark purple hue. Wow - amazing nose. Black plums, sweet spice, mulberries, leather, and hints of earthy manure. Fabulous. On the palate, off dry, high acidity, deep concentration of flavours, medium plus body and medium alcohol. Great depth on the long lingering finish. A revelation. Clearly the best sparkling Aussie wine I have tried, never mind sparkling red wine. Awesome. 94 points. — 9 years ago

From K & L wines and Max Kognod. If you like Arnot & Roberts this is for you. Two guys and a basket press - they just happen to be in Baden/Germany. As always awesome and unique! This time around i get elderberry on the nose - in the glass cinnamon cardamom and spice this is a joy to drink ‼️. — 10 years ago
