90 Points James Halliday The fruit for this wine was harvested from Deakin Estate vineyards in the Murray Darling wine region of North West Victoria. “Light red-purple, bright and clear; the bouquet has fragrant red berry aromas, the light- to medium-bodied palate with similar fruit enhanced by fine but persistent tannins. Given an extra point for its freshness and elegance." 90 Points James Halliday “Highly recommended. Wine of great quality, style and character, worthy of a place in any cellar." 90 Points, James Halliday, www.winecompanion.com.au Normal Price: $14.95ea Our Price: $8.95ea Winemaker’s Comments: Phil Spillman Colour: Deep, vibrant red. Nose: Rich blueberries with subtle notes of menthol and black pepper highlighted by some spicy vanillin oak. Palate: Rich and juicy with blueberry characters and well-balanced oak. The palate shows good structure with medium tannins and a lingering finish. Cellaring Potential: Enjoy now but may also be cellared up to four years. Suggested Cuisine: Try an oven baked lasagne or a hearty beef and stout pie, a roasted rack of lamb or an aged sirloin topped with chimichurri sauce . |
