Gold Medal & 95 Points - Adelaide Hills Wine Show 2018
Lush dark berry fruit with striking floral edges combine on the nose of the Dagger Pinot Noir to create a fresh yet complex attack on the senses. Lifted rich fruit and spice parry along the palate to a finish of fine-grained tannin and bright acidity. The Dagger has been honed to create a vibrant, rich, earlier drinking wine displaying all of the hallmark aromas flavours and texture of Pinot Noir. Drink young while the edge is keen. The grapes for ‘The Dagger’ are from Charleston and Gumeracha in the Adelaide Hills.
A very well handled Adelaide Hills pinot, its price reflecting a marketplace that is at present stocked with lots of high quality wines selling below their true value. Drink: To 2025; Alcohol: 13.5%; Rating: 91 Points; James Halliday
Soft and fruit-sweet, charming and deliciously fruit. A really lovely early-drinking wine, with good pinosity and early drinking properties as well as enough structure and intensity to take some age well. This is great value for money. Rating: 91 Points; Huon Hooke
Here we go again. This is fantastic buying. Such good drinking at a snip of a price. Cherry-plum, redcurrant, sweet oak, throws of spice. Its appeal is obvious and immediate. Tannin is gum-smooth; it continues the uncomplicated theme. Rating: 91 Points; Campbell Mattinson
This is good wine. No going to change the world but a good value pino.
