"Fresh and lively, this red is juicy with berry flavors that show and a tinge of oatmeal. Finishes on a savory note."

"Fresh and refreshing, with pretty plum and floral flavors on a spacious frame, lingering without weightiness."

"The 2010 Thomas Hyland Shiraz displays a deep garnet-purple color and aromas of ripe blackberry and cherry preserves plus hints of bacon, pepper, tree bark and cedar. Concentrated and taut on the medium-bodied palate, it has crisp acidity and a medium level of grainy tannins, finishing long."

"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2010 Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon shows forward black currant, cedar and clove aromas over hints of forest floor and bay leaf. Medium-bodied with good amount of muscular fruit, crisp acid, medium to firm levels of grainy tannins and a long, relatively straightforward finish."

"Bright violet color. Powerfully scented with blackberry and blueberry, with a more serious licorice character coming up in the glass. Flavors of dark berries, bitter cherry and mocha show both depth and verve, sweetened by a touch of vanilla. Gains firmness with air and finishes with good clarity and length. Definitely shows the polish I've come to expect from a Ben Riggs wine."

"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2010 Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz displays pure cassis and black cherry cordial aromas underlying notes of aniseed, violets, pepper and chocolate. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is voluptuous and wonderfully balanced between vibrant acid and a medium level of fine tannins. It finishes long and spicy and shows ageing potential."

"Bright ruby. Deeply pitched aromas of cherry compote, cassis and smoky herbs. Supple and expansive, with intense dark fruit flavors that show appealing sweetness and an open-knit character. Dusty tannins add grip to a long, spicy and sharply focused finish. I like this wine's interplay of opulence and precision."

"Smoky dark berries and herbs on the perfumed nose, with a subtle licorice quality adding interest. Fresh and lively, offering good depth to its juicy blackberry and cherry flavors. Gains weight and spiciness on the finish, which delivers impressive thrust and snap."

"Smoky, herb-accented aromas of cherry and redcurrant. Sappy and broad, with a supple texture to the bitter cherry and red fruit preserve flavors. Finishes lush and weighty, with notes of cherry pit and licorice. Quite rich but there's good back-end bite to this wine."
