Average Critic Score: 93.0/100

Plantagenet planted the first vines at Bouverie in 1968, establishing the foundation for what became Mount Barker's identity as a serious cool-climate Shiraz region. The 1993 vintage scored 93 points from James Suckling, who described it as wondrously powerful and exotic. Now in its fourth decade, the wine sits in full tertiary development: dried herbs, earth, preserved dark fruit and warm spice, with a palate that has lost nothing of its underlying authority. A rare piece of Great Southern history in the glass.

Critic Reviews

93 Points - James Suckling, jamessuckling.com

“Medium to full red-purple; a wondrously powerful and exotic bouquet with rich spicy dark berry fruit in classic Rhône-style. The palate literally explodes with dark cherry, licorice and spice flavours, producing a wine of tremendous vinosity and length. Tasted five times, four times in shows, with very consistent gold medal points.”

93 Points - Jeremy Oliver, Oliver's Wines

“The wines are drinking beautifully now, they do make terrific and rare gifts for wine lovers …”
