"Quite a heady nose, with aromas of dried raisins and roasted nuts. Flavoursome nutty/toffee palate is long, rich and intense."
, Winestate, Cask Wines, March 2008

"An excellent class with one wine worthy of bottling - a big surprise! Light amber in colour. Rich aromas of caramelised apricots, raisins and hazelnuts. The intensely flavoured palate has very good balance to the sweet golden syrup and dried fig characters, with lots of nutty complexity showing through on the finish."
