Critical Reviews

"Bright hue; a light to medium bodied pallet, with strong spicy peppery components alongside red berry fruits; pleasant, early maturing wine. Cellar to 2014. Rating: 89/100."

Ray Jordan's WA Wine Guide 2009, Ray Jordan

"This is a delicious soft and supple savoury plum shiraz. It's opulent and powerful and looks tremendously exciting."

Andrew Graham of the Australian Wine Review on February 25th 2009

"Out of all the samples that cross the desk, I look forward to wines like this the most. Smaller operations, with established vineyards and a real driving sense of passion behind the wines & the winemaking. These Singlefile wines are more slickly packaged and marketed than many (which is good to see, however I'm a little wary of wines that are sold on marketing hype and are light on with the detail) with the core of 20 yr old vine fruit serving to make this convincing.

A perfumed, plum sauce and star anise nose with hints of Shirognier-ish black fruit pastels. The palate is subtly flavoured, with pepper, spicy integrated oak and more purple fruit. Besides some back palate bitterness the fresh mid weight palate makes for an appreciably elegant & pleasurable drink. At just 13.4% alcohol it tastes balanced and perfectly ripe - which just reminds me how we much we need more 13.4% Australian Shiraz. 17+ (this will get better with age)."

Australian Wine Guide, Clive Hartley

"Well focused red berries aromas with a hint of spice and seasoned oak. Also a hint herbaceous which I don't mind (displaying Denmark's cool climate). Sweet black cherry middle palate with soft approachable tannins which makes this a refreshing medium bodied style red suitable for a wide range of food. Recommended."

FineWineClub.com.au, June 2009

"Dusty to start with, but opens with time. Some nice cherry and spice on the nose. The palate is bright, ripe and long. There is firm ripe fruit with fine oak and tannins to finish. Souring cherry fruit adds interest to the palate. 17+ (will improve with age)."
