Knappstein Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
98 Point Rated & 5 Stars - Winestate Magazine
"An intense crimson hued wine that is very youthful with many years ahead of it yet. It exhibits great depth, concentration and vibrancy of varietal fruit richness."
95 Point Rated - Campbell Mattinson The Wine Front
"Well. This is a beauty. So much fruit, tannin and oak but in such overall balance. Blackcurrant and toast, peppermint cream and dried herbs, chocolate. Swoosh. It’s big, it’s creamy and it’s tannic but it has energy. Bowled me over a bit, this one. Belter of a Clare Valley cabernet."
Shanahans Silence Is Golden Barossa Valley Shiraz 2019
96 Point Rated - Kim Brebach
“Dense, profound Shiraz with a spicy nose and a glossy texture. Top red from the word GO. Rich, ripe fruit, dark chocolate and Christmas pudding spices, with some charcuterie in the background. Fine tannins on the long finish round it all off nicely. Perfect pitch, one of those reds you can enjoy now (after some airing) and keep for 20 years. Brilliant. 96 points. A genuine bargain.”

“Very attractive nose with tarry, spicy characters. It is stunning densely packed, oaky, fruit-driven style with excellent structure.”
95 Point Rated - Patrick Eckel Wine Reviewer
"A glossy, deep red in the glass with dark plum, earth and charcuterie on the nose that has a gentle nudge of spiced oak. There is a wonderful savoury, dark fruited core to the wine that is laced with dark cocoa; acidity gives structure and drive with a rhone like deli influence on the mid palate. Black cherry, plum and graphite frame the long, satisfying finish. A wine that will live for decades."
95 Point Rated - Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"Youthful and wonderfully perfumed, showing Black Doris plum, mulberry, tar, cedar and dark cocoa aromas on the nose. The delectably expressed palate offers velvety texture and beautifully pitched tannins, making it sumptuous and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2034. $30.00. www.shanahanswines.com.au. May 2021."
90 Point Rated Stuart Know The Real Review
"Deep to opaque purple core with a brightness in the rim. Plum conserve, lavender and black olive aromatics. Plum fruits and aniseed spices on entry, a soft and weighty palate that is quite textured. Good length and drive into the finish where tannins kick in and grip quite firmly. A little decanter time to soften them would be of benefit."

“A distinctive, interesting shiraz with richly spiced plum cake, eucalyptus, marjoram, black truffle and coca powder
Curtis Family Vineyards Limited Series McLaren Vale Shiraz 2018
96 Points Sam Kim Wine Orbit
It's gloriously styled and symphonic, showing blackberry, mixed spice, smoked game, cedar and vanilla characters on the nose, leading to a sumptuous palate that offers magnificent depth and richly textured mouthfeel. Multi-layered with immense complexity and persistency.

Highly Rated Jane Faulkner Halliday Wine Companion
Less winemaking artefact especially the oak regime - French barrels, 33% new, aged for 18 months - would allow more freshness and life in. Instead, this dense wine is infused with sweet smoky flavours, a backdrop against the very ripe fruit with masses of tannin. It's sturdy and needs lots of air to show signs of life.

94 Point Rated - Australian Wine Showcase Magazine
"Engaging fruit cake like aromas followed by a rich dark juicy fruit flavours with good use of oak and some nice fresh acidity."
Schoolhouse Headmaster Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
98 Point & 5 Star Rated Winestate Magazine
95 Points Sam Kim Wine Orbit
A wonderful rendition of the variety; the immediately appealing bouquet shows cassis, floral, cedar and subtle spice notes with a touch of tobacco complexity. It's concentrated and flavoursome on the palate, delivering excellent fruit purity and persistency. Opulent and stylish at the same time, offering terrific drinking.
94 Point Rated Tony Love Winepilot
Everything about this wine screams classic, familiar, pleasing Coonawarra cabernet, its aromatics lifted with cassis and mint chocolate, reverbing as you drink with a full-bodied backbone holding everything in place. Vibrant, dark berry fruit flavours, deftly supported by good oak without dominating, and discernible yet mild tannins to finish. Very tidily delivered for a terrific Coonawarra cabernet experience for all comers.
Highly Rated Huon Hooke The Real Review
Deep red/purple colour, with a gumleaf-mint aroma, slightly sappy, and the palate is rather tart from edgy acidity. This needs food.
