Still plenty of life in this Aussie Shiraz. All of the typical power but surprisingly refined. Dark berries and hints of Rioja like vanilla and cigar box. Very happy I have 3 more bottles in the cellar — 9 years ago

Beautiful tropical nose with clear hints of vanillin oak. This has serious presence on the pallet and the texture shows serious restraint that really pays off, it is so supple and perfectly delicate and fresh. Touch of granite minerality. WOW!
Seriously outstanding. — 10 years ago

The fall months are extremely frantic at the North Pole. Not only is Santa getting ready for Christmas but it's also the time he harvests and makes his wine for next Christmas. This year he is especially excited because the grapes came from vineyards that Comet and Cupid particularly seemed to enjoy. All summer long The Eight Tiny Reindeer watch and wait for the grapes to grow to their optimum maturity. Santa knows that when his reindeer are smiling it's time to pick the grapes. It seems that happy reindeer make really good wine! — 8 years ago

Australian Chardonnay doesn't get much better. At five years, when some are looking tired, this is fresh as a daisy. Citrus, white nectarine, barley sugar, grilled hazelnut with slatey minerality. Generous, yet focussed and precise. — 9 years ago
