Accolades:
5 Stars - Michael Cooper. Set for a very long life, the 2014 vintage is a single-vineyard Syrah with deep, still fairly youthful colour. Still unfolding, it is fragrant and weighty, with rich plum, berry and spice flavours, complex, savoury, well-structured and lingering. Best drinking 2024+
