"Rancio characters noticeable on the delicious nose. Intense raisined, nutty and chocolaty flavours on the lively, zesty palate."
, Winestate, Cask Wines, March 2008
"A heady alcohol lift to the nose with fig and prune aromas on offer. Very sweet on the palate; delivers raisin and coffee flavours with assertive tannins and moderate persistence."

"A rich dark wine with floral tones."
Ray Jordan, West Australian, September 2004
"There is plenty of flavour here - raisins, toffee, liquorice - in this soft, smooth and sweet fortified. Satisfying and well priced."
Max Allen & Peter Forrestal, Quaff 2004, The Best Value Wines In Australia, December 2003
"Light tawny colour. Raisin 'pudding-like' nose. Raisin, clove and spice flavours apparent on the palate. Showing aged characteristics. Clean and well-made with slightly hot finish."
