The Merlot-based 2009 Red Blend Stornoway is quite delicate and silky on the palate. Effortless layers of fruit take shape nicely in the glass. Red currants, raspberries, crushed flowers, sweet spices and French oak are all nicely layered into the nuanced, vinous finish. An inviting, gorgeous wine, the 2009 should drink well pretty much right out of the gate. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024.  -Antonio Galloni WA, #204 December 2012

Subtle aromas of meyer lemon, toasted brioche and vanilla bean. Soft flavors of summer melon and citus caramel followed by a hint of coriander spice. Estate Grown.

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Somerston stands out for its gorgeous balance of fruit acidity and tannin. All the elements fall into place in this effortless Cabernet. Dark red berries, spices and flowers lead to a creamy, textured finish. Interestingly, in 2009 there is a bit less difference between the two Cabernet bottlings than in 2010. The 2009 needs a few more years in bottle for the tannins to start softening. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. - Antonio Galloni WA, #204 December 2012

A dark, sumptuous wine, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Somerston boasts stunning depth, power and richness. Mocha, chocolate, espresso and cloves flesh out in this intense, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon. There is so much fruit, the tannins of the vintage are nearly buried. A full throttle, opulent Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2010 is a gorgeous wine from start to finish and a terrific example of the vintage. The 2010 is 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2030. - Antonio Galloni WA, #204 December 2012
