Awards	Gold Medal – 2020 China Wine & Spirits Awards Best Value Gold Medal – 2019 Gilbert & Gaillard International Challenge Crimson-ruby with youthful vibrancy.

Reviews	91 points (4.5 Stars) – Sam Kim, Wine Orbit This is youthfully expressed and fragrant on the nose showing dark plum, cherry, mixed spice and toasted nut characters. The palate displays ripe fruit flavours together with smooth mouthfeel and polished tannins, making it supple and very friendly. At its best: now to 2025. 91 points (4 Stars) – Stephen Read, Wine Matrix Red currants, cassis, dark plums greet the nose with herbal nuances adding to the complexity along with hints of sweet vanilla. Dark ruby red clear and bright, the complex palate has multilayered fruit, active tannins and a clean astringent balanced acid. The tannins are tight but firm and add to the overall balance. The finish has good length rounding out the wine. Enjoy now or over the next 4 to 5 years. 90 points (4 Stars) – Huon Hooke, The Real Review Bright red/purple colour, fresh and attractive. Bright berry aromas, clean and fresh, lovely wine, soft gentle tannins. Spot-on ripeness. Well made as an early drinking, non-nonsense, unpretentious style. Lovely. Drink 2020 to 2027. 9/10 – Max Crus, Grape Expectations The old man reckons pinot is the 'go to' wine for curries but merlot would surely give it a run for it's money…which is probably a bad way to put it when referring to curries. Coonawarra isn't just good for Cab sav, and curries.
