To be honest, we're freaking out a little so we'll keep this brief: St Hugo can get whatever fruit they want in the Barossa. This is the wine they make with love, only in the best years, and only from where the fruit is at its absolute peak that vintage. Half the time, they don't make this wine - this year it was Rowland Flat's turn... unbelievable stuff.

Why do we love this wine?
Cherry and spice announce themselves early, lifted and vivid, carrying into a palate that's medium-to-full-bodied in weight but rich in texture. Those same red cherry and spice notes run right through, held together by fine tannins and finishing smooth, with real length. Ready to enjoy tonight, or happy to keep developing for years to come. Don't miss out on this opportunity.

Ken Gargett
Not often that a ten-year-old Aussie red lands on the market, especially one which really is such good value. 2016 was a brilliant vintage for the Barossa Valley region and this is from the Rowland Flat sub-region. Under screwcap. Mature yes, but it is still full of life and energy and has an excellent future still ahead of it. The colour is dark blood red while the nose reveals aromas of dried herbs, a touch of chocolate, leather, aniseed, black fruits and liqueur cherries. There is excellent oak integration evident and the wine exhibits serious length with a line of bright acidity. Well balanced, this is absolutely delicious and should provide immense pleasure over the next ten to fifteen years. 96 Points.
