93 $28 Drink by: 2025-2030 A fighting Shiraz if ever there was one, hitting well above its price point and bringing some trad Vale generosity of flavour to the glass. Smooth, textural and well-integrated in oak, there is a natural harmony in the ripe blackberry, black cherry and plum fruits accompanied by gentle anise, chocolate and woody spices.

Year in, year out, it arrives in the glass and the drinker’s high expectations are always met – that’s so comforting.

93 $45 Drink by: 2025-2030 A glistening green gold hue offers an impressive start. Lifted aromatics keep the momentum going with aromas of nectarine, white peach and citrus with the lasting scent of apple blossom. The ’24 Coonawarra vintage was cool and dry and Chardonnay responded with a supple, elegant wine that lays everything out up front and is generous across the middle palate before being nicely corralled by lively acidity into a bright finish.

A decade later it returned in ‘22 and brings an imposing deep colour and intensity of flavour to the glass. Impenetrable dark purple.

The style has changed significantly over the years, becoming more elegant, less austere. A hard act to follow from the excellent ’21 but ‘22, with its cool nights and extended ripening, has delivered a lovely, focused young Shiraz.
