Tart red cherry, light body, surprising prominent peppery tannins. Meet the Maker tasting. — 2 months ago
Nice alternative to sauv blanc. Not as citrusy or acidic. Beautiful honey suckle smell — 2 months ago
Sweet black fruits - plums. Only medium weight - restrained. 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, 5% Malbec and 5% Petit Verdot. 2012 was a cooler more moderate growing season, more claret style says Sam Middleton. This is not one of the great Quintets IMO. At its best Quintets is one of the best Cabernet blends in Australia. It still reinforces the fact that the Yarra Valley is one of the better terroirs for Bordeaux blends in Australia. Not for long cellaring. This is first of 3 of the 2012 vintage I have in my cellar. — 4 months ago
Really nice - lovely aged flavours from the sem. Acid is perfect and moorish — 5 months ago

Complex sweet spicy bold with hints of vanilla. Can’t imagine much better — 4 years ago


Crisp white Bordeaux served at friend’s hose in Kennebunk, ME (7 High) — 5 months ago
1994 vintage. Popped, decanted and filtered and tasted immediately. Opened six decades too early. The whole crushed violets and plummy thang definitely there alongside hints of sweet tobacco in her breath. With apologies, just another number in your little black book. These are the pros and cons. 1.24.26. — 5 months ago
I usually don’t like French reds but this drank like a Napa red. Very nice — 9 months ago
Very good. Would pick up a bottle (had at a bunko’s night). Paired well with a lemon meringue pie. Easy drink on its own. — 4 months ago
A bit closed in but really pretty. Lots of white flower and soft stone fruit. Not as much oak/lees influence as other vintages on tasting. — 5 months ago

Enjoyable blend. Moderate fruit in both nose and palate on opening. Smoothed out with some time. Great value. Will get another — a month ago
