90+ Lisa Perrotti-Brown - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Medium garnet-purple in color, the 2012 Menagerie of the Barossa Grenache Shiraz Mataro presents aromas of warm mulberries, kirsch and red currant jelly highlighted by hints of garrigue, dried herbs and pepper. Medium to full-bodied with mouth-filling red berry preserve, pepper and baking spice flavors, it has a medium level of velvety tannins and a lively acid line carrying the fruit to a long finish. Drink it now to 2018+."

90 Josh Raynolds - Vinous Media

"Vivid ruby. Ripe red fruits and floral pastilles on the fragrant nose, with spice and licorice nuances emerging slowly. Silk and open-knit, offering subtly sweet raspberry and cherry compote flavors energized by a jolt of cracked pepper. Finishes plush and round, with gentle tannins and a lingering echo of juicy red and dark berries."
