99-Points - Huon Hooke, The Real Review 
“This is the best Gaia I can recall ever tasting. The colour is a profound and very bright purple-red and it has a bell-clear, ultra-youthful mulberry/blueberry aroma which is fruit driven...read more

James Halliday - 98 Points "The cool, late vintage and reduced yield come together in a glorious Riesling that is so delicious now it will be hard to give it the 10 or so years...read more

Campbell Mattinson - The Wine Front

"Well, seriously, the 2023 Grosset rieslings are wonderful. This has you at hello. It’s structured and a touch reserved but there’s decent flavour both at the outset and throughout...read more

Stuart McCloskey "Deliciously fruity, deeply intense, juxtaposed by refreshing bitterness (moderately so) with a super-long peppery finish... comes with our unwavering seal of approval…read more

18.5/20 Points – Matthew Jukes “Reminds me of great Southern Rhône whites from a bygone era but with more flair, professionalism, fruit clarity and drinkability...read more

Kym Teusner “Our inaugural Sparkling MC Shiraz release, the 2005, accumulated numerous great reviews and created much fanfare...read more

19.5 / 20 - Matthew Jukes “Whether this beautifully complex flavour will add the half point needed to reach a perfect score in years to come is irrelevant because Riversdale Vineyard clearly has a stash of twenties buried in its soil...read more

99 Points - James Suckling "A gloriously detailed, focused and concentrated rendition of grenache, this has a punchy and energetically youthful stance...

Stuart McCloskey "The palate is a joy, I hate to use the term ‘intellectual’, but this one stops you in your tracks and forces a private discussion between you and the wine – so much is going on...read more

Stuart McCloskey “Like a great song, the flavours gradually build – the senses tingle with excitement. The finish is epically long… Another fabulous release...read more

Stuart McCloskey "It's great to see such quality although, no surprise, given the pedigree behind the winemaker. Fans of Bruce’s Artus and Purus will enjoy this wine immensely... read more

Jaysen Collins “I cut my winemaking teeth in the heavy red soils of the north west of the Barossa, where Greenock is the jewel of the crown in my opinion. My winery is here, the pub does a good burger and by chance there’s some pretty good shiraz...read more

Jaysen Collins “Grenache and friends work well together - I’ll just pick them within a few days of each other, chuck it all in one fermenter and let the ferment rock it in its own way...read more

Jaysen Collins “Old vine Barossa grenache vineyards are a rare treat. Walking amongst the old bush vines gives me such a wonderment of what has transpired in the years gone by to get to this moment in time. It’s like i am breathing the air of times past...read more

Erin Larkin "Fermented in stainless steel in the pursuit of purity, and left on fine lees prior to filtration and bottling in July. The acidity is coiled and taut and brilliant...read more

Stuart McCloskey "Slippery on the palate which creates a seductive, textural edge to the palate feel. The flavours fade slowly – excellent length.  All-in-all, an excellent Chardonnay...Tremendous value...read more

Erin Larkin "Darker, denser and far more serious than the TSR Shiraz of the same vintage, this seriously delivers concentrated fruit, tannins and length of flavour... Length of flavour is indicative of great fruit."
