"95 Points. Langhorne Creek fruit sourced from estate and specialist growers; 51/43/6% shiraz/cabernet sauvignon/malbec, nine months in French puncheons (10% new). This is a slick operation. It's storybook value, impossible to beat at this price. It's a (decorous) fruit bomb with silky tannins and plums, the malbec pulling a stunt with much more to taste than its volume suggests. The score is designed to encourage as many people as possible to give it a go. 13.5% Alc, Drink 2024-2026
