91 points, Wine & Spirits: "...a textbook example of the varietal made friendlier and fruitier than anything California has to offer at the price... This has all the hallmark flavors of classic cabernet - the mouth-gripping tannins, the currant fruit, even the lead-pencil notes. It's been plumped by the sun at 1,000 meters, becoming generous, even luxurious in its blackberry flavors. Succulent and lasting, it gets even better with air." |

88 points, Robert Parker: "The 2002 Shiraz Individual Vineyard's saturated ruby/purple color, excellent texture, and weighty, lush mouthfeel are impressive. The wine, which had just been bottled, needs to settle down, but it possesses loads of character, and it should ultimately merit a score similar to the Cabernet Sauvignon. A substantial effort, it provides further evidence of just how special the 2002 vintage appears to be in South Australia." |

87 points, Wine Spectator, BEST VALUE: "Open and inviting, with blueberry pudding, blackberry fruit and sweet vanilla caressing the finish. Jammy. Comes straight at you, but very tasty. 2,000 cases made." – Wine Spectator |
|
88 points, Wine Spectator: "Bright and juicy, with a textbook mix of raspberry and tobacco leaf notes, and a round, fleshy finish that brings you back. Nice focus here. Tasty. Drink now through 2003. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 3,500 cases made." |
|
87 points, Robert Parker of The Wine Advocate - A GREAT BUY: "...exhibits luscious fruit and a pleasant, accessible, supple finish. It is the type of easy to drink, dry red wine that is nearly impossible to duplicate in the New World..." |
