Bloody Good
"This is a full-throttle fruity cask white that is cleaner, fresher and fruitier than last year, with a crisp, refreshing finish that lingers."

Peter Forrstal, Quaff 2011, October 2010

Good
"This is typical of verdelho, as you’d hope, and so has brighter, riper sweet tropical fruit than most of these cask wines. It is all balanced by a dryish finish."

Peter Forrestal, Quaff 2010, October 2009

"The Verdelho is not overly varietal but an enjoyable lighter style of white that benefits from chilling."

Ken Gargett, Brisbane Courier Mail, February 2009

5/5
"Plenty of ripe tropical fruit flavour with soft, lemony acid. The sweetness is within acceptable limits. Top value."

Paddy Kendler, Best In a Box, Herald Sun, May 2008

"Delicate citrus blossom, rose petal and honeysuckle nose. Similar delicate palate of fresh green apple skins and light floral characters."

, Winestate, April 2007

"This is clean and fresh with some pleasing fruity characters."

Peter Forrestal, Quaff, December 2006

"Chock full of tropical fruits with a creamy passionfruit aroma. Nice easy drinking with a crisp acid finish."

Ray Jordan, Crackers in a box, West Australian, December 2004
