A number of critics have rated this Adelaide Hills wine extremely highly.
Critic tasting note: (2020 vintage) "Sweet, sour, tangy and twiggy. The fruit, too hot, with little restraint other than the twiggy and poorly handled oak. The finish, a wash of tomato leaf and sickly fruit flavors. This is undrinkable. Screw cap." - James Suckling
