TASTING NOTES

 

93pts - James Suckling

"This is a very good Adelaide Hills shiraz. The encroaching warmth of the region reverberates across palate-staining dark fruits as much as the cooler reductive handling and notes of dried nori, olive and meaty bouillon washes across the finish. A hint of Aussie menthol dries the sweet finish in the best sense, saving it from straying into excess. Drink or hold."

 

92pts - Wine Advocate

"The 2022 Love Me Love You Shiraz is from the Adelaide Hills and is decidedly minty, leafy and vibrant on the nose. In fact, it gives off nouveau-type vibes, which is in line with the packaging of the bottle. In the mouth, this is floral, energetic and electric, with fine tannins and thrilling fruit. A pleasure. Drink it sooner rather than later—the life is the party here."

 

91pts - Wine Enthusiast

"This small-batch, highly likable Shiraz shows a touch of volatility and wholebunch action, but those acetone and stalky notes serve to lift and brighten the red and blueberry fruits, florals and mushrooms. There’s equal spring in the step of the light-weight palate via crunchy, bright acidity, wound in raspy, skins-y tannins. Gluggable, yet food friendly."
