~ Matthew Jukes | Top 100 Australian Wines
"With stunning density and grandeur and a Grand Cru sense of style, layering fruit and big-budget oak, this wine takes Syrah from a Rhône peasant style to the Royal Court. Velvety, sooty, stemmy, epically oaky and with mighty tannins, it is tempting to say this is a wine of excess, but everything is in proportion. You must like fullframed wine to be granted an audience, but there is a lot to enjoy in this wine. Born of vines planted in 1971, the fruit quality is not lost in the forest of oak, and with a few more years to mellow, I am confident this will be a superbly enticing wine."
Cultivated Collection Shiraz | 2020
A cultivar that truly expresses the native terroir of not only the Frankland River region where it is renowned but more specifically that of Alkoomi. This impressive wine is a powerful expression of the land, the grape and the winemaking style. A bouquet of elegance, that provokes a longing to taste. The complexity and generosity is fascinating and compelling. A tricky balance between delicacy, precision and bold flavours with a tannin structure that will only entice.
Cultivated Collection Riesling | 2021
A heroic variety for the Frankland River region, riesling thrives in the gravelly soils where it grows. This powerful wine is bursting with flavour, while holding the traditionally long and mineral acid line expected from the cultivar. It is delicate yet intense, lets your imagination wander with the extent of flavours and aromas it presents. The intrigue is enticing and refreshing. This is a wine that you will want to savour and take your time to explore.
~ Erin Larkin | 95 Points
“In the mouth, the wine is textural and savoury, and on the whole, it champions the Frankland acidity... There are notes of salted lime, apple skins, layers of grapefruit and crushed nuts. It is rich, lively, exciting, svelte and powerful. Exceptional wine here.”
