First review so here we go. Was hoping it would be 82 Latour but it's not. Nicely balanced, well made wine. Sort of simple yet possessing more personality than most of its peers at the price point. Single vineyard making the difference no doubt but I see solid winemaking with plenty of creativity as well. Good value at the price - 88 points — 10 years ago
Very good drink, thankfully in a half bottle. Acidity would suggest a full bottle would need 3-5 more years. Serious stuff though 94+ — 9 years ago
Epic as always, still has a great acid line. Secondary action really coming through now. Are these the worlds best value white wines ? Hard to argue. 95 — 9 years ago
Much better than the 2008 for mine. The warmer (some say perfect) vintage evident. I'm starting to think I prefer these entry level releases than the Special Reserve range. 95 — 9 years ago
Perfect Cabernet. Entry level 2008 is drinking as well as anything in the land. Peerless at the price — 10 years ago

About the 10th bottle I've had of this year. Yet another winner. No need to wax lyrical on this one other than to say it remains near peerless at the price point. I should have bought more — 8 years ago
