A thrillingly aromatic, juicy and textural Adelaide Hills Shiraz, The Cutlass more than earns its 96-point score from Tony Love.

Renowned critic Jeni Port says:

"The Cutlass is well named, moving fast with plenty of dash straight to the point – and that is to promote one terrific cool climate Shiraz."

Tony Love adds:

"Aromatics of summer berry pudding, crushed grape flesh, and dark mint... timber, earth and heavy spice... gossamer tannins. A joyous wine to taste then drink again – its natural purity is all that’s needed."

This is undoubtedly one of the finest Adelaide Hills Shiraz releases on the market right now – cool climate Shiraz at its most expressive and refined.

Typically fresh and zesty. this edition of the Dagger is brimful of with fresh red and forest fruits and more power than we've seen in recent vintages. A modern Pinot in style and unashamedly medium bodied and made to enjoy over the next 5-6 years. The fruit here is quite concentrated and we reckon this is the best Dagger for a few years.

Perhaps the prettiest and most aromatic Sabre to date, offering aromatics and flavours of strawberry, redcurrants and dark cherry; a tensile, mid-weight palate, excellent length and cedary oak goodness. Learn More

A super expressive Pinot Gris, packed with fresh nashi pears and florals, a hint and a streak of minerality. Fruit is in the driver's stage, with acid in second place, being closely stalked by texture. The wine will become more textural with time but already looks good. Just a few months of lees stirring in 25% new French oak, and juice oxidization prior to ferment give this superb weight and texture. Even better than the excellent 2024 vintage. Learn More

Powerful, cedary and black-fruited. A few years ago this was probably monstrous. Pleasingly, it's settling into itself, and a bit of a decant sees it drinking beautifully. Exceptional concentration of dark fruits here, along with chocolate and spice. Handpicked and basket pressed. Learn More

A big, brooding beast, packed with blackberry, dark cherries, dark chocolate, baking spice and plenty of cedar. The generosity and ripeness of fruit is superb. Definitely worth decanting. Learn More

Quality pinot which is relaxed and ready to drink. Plenty of red fruit fragrance here, plenty of spice, wild mushroom and cured meat on the palate, and a fleshiness which quality Pinot always seems to offer. Learn More
