Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion - 95 Pts

MDR is a medium-dry red; a pitch-perfect blend of cabernet sauvignon, malbec and shiraz. The fruit comes from Gundagai and Hilltops, although no new oak adopted. So, in the glass, it’s all gorgeous fruit and fragrance from cassis, mulberries and black plums laced with dark chocolate that's studded with mint. There’s a savoury edge, too, a squid ink note, but cabernet is certainly in the driver’s seat. It’s fuller-bodied, with a succulence across the palate. Everything is brought together by fine, textural tannins and equally fine acidity. Impressive.
