"From a single block of the estate Heywood Vineyard, open-fermented with 30% whole bunches, the balance whole berries, 7 days cold soak, 14-day ferment plus some post-ferment maceration, matured in high quality French barriques (35% new) for 12 months. Great colour announces a special wine that ticks all the boxes: depth of dark berry fruits, spice, licorice and supple tannins. Bargain+++." - 97 Points - James Halliday, Wine Companion
