Critic reviews
Critic reviews
The Wine Front – Sumptuous, medium to fuller weight red with lashings of spice, dark berry fruit character, leather and sweet turned earth, a good flourish of twiggy-clove over the top. Sits neat, trim and firm in the palate, very spicy to taste and loaded with dark chocolate powder and inky blackcurrants. Complex, tightly wound and intense, it does a good job of vin de garde styling and wears its fanciness well. - Mike Bennie, 31 December 2021
James Halliday – 58/42% merlot/cabernet sauvignon, matured in French hogsheads (21% new) for 18 months. This vintage celebrates 30 years of the Abbotts Prayer Vineyard in Lenswood. A lifted beauty on the bouquet, resplendent in rose petal, violet, cassis, raspberry, bush mint and anise. Firm and focused on the palate, with an undercurrent of undergrowth, earth and graphite. - Jeni Port, 3 August 2022
