"94 Points. Naming the wine ‘undercover’ is a nod to McLaren Vale’s history of providing first class red grapes to so many other regions for so many years. Nowadays, Langhorne Creek probably fills that role. McLaren Vale is, thankfully, finally receiving the accolades it deserves. The fruit here came from three different vineyards in the region, planted between 20 and 140 years ago. Maturation was for 15 months in a mix of new and older French oak hogsheads. The colour is an opaque maroon. The nose offers a range of flavours, incorporating cassis, mocha, spices, blueberries, chocolate and a touch of slightly coconutty oak, an absolutely alluring nose. This is seamless with a supple and seductive texture, very good length and silky tannins while the intensity is maintained for the full journey. This is a cracker that will drink beautifully for at least the next dozen years. Love it. $32. Drink: 2025 - 2037"- Ken Gargett, Wine Pilot.
"94 Points. It's richly expressed on the nose, showing blackberry, dark plum, warm spice and cedar characters on the nose, leading to a weighty palate that's filled with succulent fruit flavours and spicy nuances. Splendidly framed by silky tannins, finishing supple and lingering. At its best: now to 2035."- Sam Kim, Wine Orbit.
