Huon Hooke
(McLaren Vale & Barossa Valley) Deep purple/red colour and a big, black fruit aroma with some spice and a hint of smoke. The palate is dry and firm, intense and concentrated, with good grip and life. It's very tight and firm and long. A superb red wine with serious structure and grip.

94 Points James Halliday
A 72/28% blend from McLaren Vale and Barossa Valley. An extra year in bottle, and (possibly) the simpler blend, has calmed the wine down somewhat, but not losing its fundamental personality. A delicious go everywhere wine man. Drink to 2023.
