Ned & Henry's 2010
"Smooth, juicy and sweetly fruited"
Jeremy Oliver, The Australian Wine Annual on Jan-2013
91 points.
A charmingly fruit-driven, soft and early-drinking red whose spicy, slightly meaty bouquet of blueberries, blackberries, dark plums and bramble reveals a sweet floral perfume. Smooth, juicy and sweetly fruited, with a supple backbone of dusty tannins, it's modestly oaked and finishes with length, freshness and a soft, focused acidity.
"...a wine with both serious flavour and texture..."

Bright crimson-purple; a wine with both serious flavour and texture, introduced by a spiced black cherry bouquet, then a more savoury palate with plum and cherry, French oak and tannins in significant support.
"...generously fruited in the mouth..."

A blend of Shiraz (90%) and Mourvedre (10%), the 2010 Ned & Henry's Shiraz Mourvedre gives a deep garnet color and earthy / tarry notes over dried plums, warm blackberries and bacon fat. Medium to full bodied, it is generously fruited in the mouth with velvety tannins, medium-high acid and a long savory finish. Drinking now, it should remain good through 2017.
"Difficile de ne pas aimer ce séduisant et elegant vin austalien."

Nez de fruits noir compotés, un vin souple et coolant aux tannins veloutés dote d'une suprenante fraîcheur pour cette appellation. Difficile de ne pas aimer ce séduisant et elegant vin austalien. Servir avec une viande rouge simplement grille.
"...il plaira aux amateurs de vins équilibrés et débordants de fruit."

Vin habillé d'une robe typiquement colorée, son superbe nez de fruits noirs (mûres, cassis et prunes) et de fume, charme. D'un style riche et elegant, il plaira aux amateurs de vins équilibrés et débordants de fruit. Les grillades d'agneau lui iront à merveille.
