It’s hard to pinpoint anyone who understands the Australian winegrowing landscape with as much clarity as Steve Pannell.

"It does both speeds of lightweight and serious with fine tannin profile. Lots of perfume, too, and a dark cherry, brambly herbal focus for descriptors.

And beautiful drinking." 95 Points - Mike Bennie, Halliday Wine Companion - TOP 100 Wines
