Reviews:

Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion - 93 Pts

Highly aromatic, and highly pleasing as a result. Florals, brown spices such as star anise, dark plums, dabs of cedary oak and more. The fuller-bodied palate is plush, soft almost, with pliable, velvety tannins, then a little grip on the finish. I preferred this over its reserve because there's a savouriness within and obviously less oak.

James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com - 92 Pts

Fragrant with dark-fruit aromas of blackberries and plums as well as black pepper, anise, violets and graphite. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with firm, finely structured tannins and a savory, mineral-edged mouthfeel. A polished, focused expression with freshness and depth. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
