Press Reviews
“You won’t often see me review McLaren Vale cabernet – I’m too much of a fan of the region’s shiraz. However, the Fox Creek Reserve stood out. It’s soft, generous, black cherry fruit, complemented by mocha oak flavours, was like drinking a vinous equivalent of black forest cake. Its fine tannins will hold it up for some short-term cellaring too.” Fergus McGhie, Canberra Times, 14/01/2009
“Poised and elegant cabernet from McLaren Vale. Typically lush and plump in the middle, yet there is excellent structure with grainy tannins, fine-grained oak and intensely concentrated effortlessly long fruit. One for the cellar. 92/100.”
Ray Jordan, West Australian, 31/01/2009
