Critic Reviews
96 points Erin Larkin HWC, 2018 was a 10/10 vintage in most parts of WA including Frankland River
Cellaring Potential
Will certainly reward 10-15 years in your cellar for those who can wait. If drinking now, decant for 2-3 hours for optimum enjoyment.

Roast brisket, roast vegies and Yorkshire puddings.
