REVIEWS & RATINGS
4 star - Winestate Magazine, September / October – Bright lifted aromas of plums and chocolate. Excellent concentration of raspberry flavours well supported by the oak sweetness
92 points, Winefront, Gary Welsh - I used to quite fancy actress Peta Toppano when I was a young lad. Just saying. Some sappy whole bunch action, but not too much, just a seasoning, over raspberry and cherry, cinnamon and brittle toffee. It’s medium-bodied, soft and sweetly fruited, but with some savoury interest from oak and bunches, plus some of the region’s earthiness. Finish has gentle powdery tannin, a juiciness, and decent length. It’s easy to get along with.
