A very interesting case of Rhone syrah meets Oz Shiraz. Complex and enjoyable but almost certainly too young. Give it a few more yesrs. — 8 years ago
Dark Ruby with Purple rim. Aromas of Mulberries and dusty cherries with low oak influence finishing with soft tannins and medium intensity. Steve Pannell is a master of alternative varieties in Oz like Tempranillo Touriga and Nebbiolo but here he addresses his talents to Syrah in the Adelaide Hills and does a great job as usual.

A light bodied, dry Merlot. I love it! — 7 years ago
At peak. Looking exactly as it should. Classic big Oz Cab Shiraz. Delicious ripe dark berries and Christmas cake spices. A touch of leathery development and dusty oak add to the complexity and satisfaction. An Oz, old school classic in a pretty good spot. — 7 years ago
Light gold in the glass. Great leasy citrus and white stone nose with nice minerality and fruit. Nicely balanced structure with above average finish. Had this several times over the past 3 weeks during our trek across NZ and Oz. If tasted blind it would be hard to distinguish it from a young Meursault. — 9 years ago
Enjoyed a 2 oz taste of this and now seeking it out. — 9 years ago

Too sweet on its own but good in a French 75 (2 oz gin 1.5 simple syrup 1 lemon top with wine ) — 8 years ago
The age mellowed this can enough for me to enjoy it. Soft with a bit of cherry #melbourne #oz — 9 years ago
Balanced boozy rye ale with some nice spice mid way through. Maybe shouldn't have poured 20 oz. Good stuff. — 9 years ago
Ochota will change your mind forever about how wine is being made in #Australia. The Fugazi Grenache is one of the best wines I have had from #Oz in years and surpasses many Grenache wines I have had IN and out of France. At 13.8% abv this balances freshness and ripeness perfectly for this grape. #ochota #fugazi #grenache — 10 years ago
The nose shows graphite and minty eucalyptus, blackberry and black cherry with barely a trace of oak. A classy wine and would hold its own on the global stage in its on right and style. The palate shows deeper fruit, but it's not too much and meshes well with the firm tannins. The finish leaves a nice perfume in the back of the mouth that floats up to the olfactory of loads on the eucalyptus and some violets. #oz — 10 years ago
