The Wine Front – “Zesty oily quality, citrus essential oils, apricot, a bit of fresh aromatic herbs, pastry with sweet cream and pickled ginger. That touch of something ‘pickled’ (by no means vinegar, maybe preserved is a better word), gives a nice savoury edge to the sweet perfume. Aromas are accentuated just enough, tamed from being extreme with a cleansing bitterness and zesty bite, pithy salty quality on the palate. Cinnamon, ginger, ruby grapefruit on the finish. So good.” - Kasia Sobiesiak, The Wine Front

The Wine Front – “This is not the “Turbul” label. 12 days on skins. Brown pear, hay, chamomile, candle wax, ripe nectarine. It has textural bitterness and cinnamon spice, also baked pear, mandarine peel, yellow grapefruit. Waxy and pleasantly bitter with cumin seeds and fresh minty finish. A delight of texture and smoothness at once. Very good." - Kasia Sobiesiak, The Wine Front

James Halliday – “Fermented on skins for 12 days, aged 8 months in barrel. A savoury wine, even if there’s some stone fruit in the mix, yet mostly smoky and peppery with a whisper of lanolin. Full bodied, with a slippery, creamy texture and neat phenolics on the finish.” - Jane Faulkner, Winecompanion.com.au
