Oh my f"n dog. This wine kicks ass!!! Juicy, gutsy, totes satisfying, but refined, not huge -- extremely well balanced, and... whatever Robert Parker said. Surprise: 80% merlot, just 20% cab. Can't imagine a better wine for the great grilled Dickson Market burgers we #served it with. — 11 years ago
Very nice wine. Blend: 80% Sangovese and 20% Syrah. Syrah adds a nice spiciness. Oak is very visible but well integrated. Old barrel and flashes of wet dog. Become much better the next day, smoother and delicious tannins and the Sangiovese become more relevant. Earth and leather on the nose. Particular fruit on the palate. Silky smooth texture. So elegant. It reminds me of a baby Tignanello. 13% abv — 9 years ago

This is proper NZ SB. Absolutely love it once the worst chill left the glass. Distinct flint on the nose, followed by gooseberry, grapefruit, grass and (I'm not mad) nuts & boiled potatoes. A lovely mouthful with a long lasting finish. Paid a shade over £20 but happy that its better value than the Greywacke (2015) that I tried beside at £18. My new favourite NZ Sauvingnon Blanc. — 9 years ago
