International Cool Climate Wine Show: 95pts, Top Gold
Damson plum with good vibrancy of aromas, nicely handled fruit with moderate sweetness and soft structure but overall good length and complexity.
National Cool Climate Wine Show: 95pts, Top Gold
Lovely savoury profile, delicate fruit with nice intensity and coil. Very nice and elegant wine.
Halliday review by Jeni Port : 95pts, Gold
This is no Peppermint Pattie but it comes close, bringing a now-distinctive LWSTL peppery elegance to the glass. Wild ferments can be unpredictable, but this is a mighty strong follow-up to 2020 with a similar high level of intensity: black pepper, acacia, five-spice, licorice, black fruits and spice rolling long, clean and bright across the tongue. Tannins, supple and well-crafted, sit back in readiness for time in bottle – it can easily take 10 years – and they are girded for the journey.
