91 Points Robert Parker
Deep garnet with a purple rim, the 2012 Shiraz Filsell reveals expressive blackberry compote, warm blackcurrant and blueberry pie notes with nuances of baking spices, potpourri and vanilla. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has lovely balance and expression with plenty of spice and black fruit flavors supported by chewy tannins and finishing with pleasant freshness.

94 Points James Halliday
Opaque, dense crimson-purple; the Filsell Vineyard is nearing its 100th birthday, and '12 was vintage to dream of. This full-bodied shiraz is densely packed with sooty, brooding black fruits, copious tannins and some oak. It is 10 years away from nearing its best, the points for the wine today, considerably higher down the track. Drink to 2042.
