Judges' Comments

Tony Allen

Quite serious and less commercial than some Shiraz Viognier blends. Very attractive, spicy and peppery fruit. A very good food wine.

Warren Gibson

Slightly meaty, spicy nose with florals. A bit dull, non expressive and lacking some grace. Firmish tannins overlying sweet fruit. This wine works quite well with the meat dish. The firm tannins continue through the palate and help with the persistence and balance.

Andrew Wigan

Medium deep red with dark, spicy fruit and a nice touch of oak. Firm and quite robust.

Debra Meiburg

A hint of pepper, blackberry and boysenberry fruit. Fine, textured. Balanced and structure. Good length. It accentuates the meat without stealing the thunder.

Kym Milne

Vibrant, peppery Shiraz aromas. Bright fruit. Young. Needs some time. Looks a little raw on its own but much better with the food. It appeared silkier with very good length. Better wine with the food than on its own.

Adrian Atkinson

Some spice and pepper coming through from the Shiraz and Viognier but the palate is dry and dilute. Pretty simple. The simplicity of the wine comes through with the food. It needs something like a tomato based pasta sauce dish to really mop up that simplicity.
