“Deep, brooding purple-red colour with a concentrated berry fruit bouquet laced with cedar, violets and dried herbs, gorgeous fruit and classy oak embellishment. The wine is full bodied and powerful, with a generous serving of fine grained tannins that add length, authority and a drying but supple finish. Tremendous persistence and wonderful structure. A great wine, that will richly reward long-term cellaring.” 99 points – Huon Hooke, The Real Review
“The ‘King of the Grape’ Cabernet Sauvignon comes to the fore with its flatteringly classy presence. This is captivating and totally seductive on the nose, exhibiting blackcurrant, violet, game, anise, subtle tobacco and cedary oak characters, leading to a powerfully concentrated palate displaying considerable depth and exceptional concentration. Harmonious too, it’s gloriously structured and balanced with a firm grip, yet the tannins are just right and seamlessly infused. Perfectly proportioned, this 2022 has the majestic feel that each previous Coleraine possess. A blend of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc.” 98 points – Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
“A ripper. Excellent. Every 1% pays off, and that is the defining difference between a good estate and a great one.” 97+ points – Erin Larkin (The Wine Advocate)
“A very elegant young Coleraine with lovely aromas of oyster shell, lead pencil, sweet tobacco, black currant and moss. Very perfumed and expressive. Medium-bodied with fine tannins that are polished and energetic with some citrusy acidity underneath. Some dust to the texture. This is the second highest blend of cabernet sauvignon in the history of Coleraine with 84% cabernet sauvignon, 13% merlot and the rest cabernet franc. March release. Best after 2027 and beyond.” 96 points – James Suckling

62/38% grenache/shiraz, a blend from 2 sites. 16yo puncheons of each and a single barrique of grenache. An homage to the likes of d’Arry’s Original, apparently. I grew up drinking that. Here, a less-is-more approach. A full-weighted mouthfeel, rich of flavour and yet, savoury, fresh and effortlessly detailed without being overly complicated. Bracken, kirsch and […]

From fruit grown in Hilltops, predominantly Tempranillo, with lesser quantities of Grenache and Mataro. Yes it’s young and made simply, but the 2022 Tinto is a serious bistro/café/restaurant wine. Dark cherry, blackberry, cherry cola, tobacco leaf, dark chocolate and violets. Tight and fleshy, with rugged mineral tannins. Buoyant and fresh, had this with Chinese style […]

A very rare wine of utmost intensity and exceptional quality, rewarding careful cellaring. Duck Muck was first made by a stroke of luck. Some super-ripe Shiraz was picked from Wild Duck Creek’s Original Vineyard and made into wine, which didn’t quite fill a barrel. The barrel was then topped up with Alan’s Cabernet Pressings, being […]
