From the first whiff the Vat 8 waves the flag of Tyrrell’s and the Hunter Valley. Cola, blackcurrant, blackberry, cinnamon, coffee, milk chocolate, clove and violets. Full bodied, plush and lifted by Christmas cake spice and crunchy red fruits. Luxurious and round, with ripe tannins and soft acids. The most digestible Vat 8 of recent years. Waters Wine Co
A quintessential domestic blend. The southern French have been doing it for quite some time too. The one top wine still assembled in small barriques. These impart a clear high note of bitter chocolate, mocha and vanilla-espresso. Otherwise, blackcurrant, lilac, anise, graphite and fecund Hunter earth. Terracotta tannins, long and emphatic, auguring well for a long life. Lots of adolescent fruit and jangly structural ribs. These will gel in time. 93 Points – Ned Goodwin, Halliday Wine Companion

Stony and dark-fruited, this is one to dig into now—after a brief decant—alongside slow-roasted lamb, venison, or a wild mushroom ragoût.” Tom Wolf – Kermit Lynch At Domaine Tempier, grapes from different vineyards […]
