93 POINTS WINE ENTHUSIAST “There's oodles of black currant and blackberry fruit here to start. It's spice flecked with a touch of chocolatey oak and a warm earthy, mineral core. The palate is equally lifted and sculpted, with beautiful line of acidity and taut, herb and spiced tannins. Drink now–2034.”
91 POINTS WINE ADVOCATE “The 2022 Woodcutter's Shiraz is a brilliant entrée to Barossa Shiraz. It exhibits all the earthy, red gravel, ironstone characters that infuse the tannic structure, while fleshed out by dense, purple fruit. It has levity and balance and freshness too, which is ultimately what makes it a great wine. There's gorgeous splay of spicy tannins, chewy and a little grippy. Matured for 10 months in seasoned oak, "the 2023 is coming out of oak as we speak now," says winemaker Ian Hongell. The fruit for this wine cascades down from a number of different sources within the Barossa (including Eden Valley). It's very good. 15% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink 2024-2032.”
