Martin Moran, Second Term Panellist 2019 Competition
“Mid weight elegant juicy easy to drink red that goes well enough but isn?t a special match.”
Martin Williams, Fourth Term Panellist 2019 Competition
“Mid cherry-ruby. Clean, spicy aromas, slight mineral/earth. Fine, even palate, restrained fruit, fresh acidity and fine-grained tannins. Food: good combination, the low-profile wine characters still work well with the rich food elements.”
Brent Marris, Thirteenth Term Panellist 2019 Competition
“Lovely ripe black berry and raspberry notes on the nose with richness of violets, cloves and coffee on the palate. Great texture and ripe tannins balance this wine out well. An excellent match as the wine develops lovely silky notes when tasted with the flank and brioche dish.”
Ying Hsien Tan, Second Term Panellist 2019 Competition
“Light ruby. Rosemary tinged strawberry nose. Med-full, soft, dry, ripe strawberry, light juicy tannins. Soft fruit and cream finish. Long. Neutral mutual impact between beef and wine.”
Dr Ken Dobler, Eleventh Term Panellist 2019 Competition
“Bright brick red colour. Attractive cherry jam, boiled confection and slight leafy aromas. The palate is long and dense with loads of bright primary fruit but still retaining some elegance in a nice medium bodied frame.”

Mike de Garis, Second Term Panellist 2019 Competition
“Leafy, cherry & raspberry spice, slight bagginess masks fruit, toast. Similar to nose, lacks fruit weight, drying tannins. Food : still green edge & drying tannins, acid overrides.”
