Wine Review - Batterly Durif 2005

Campbell Mattinson, WineFront - 94pts
"I would argue that this is the best Australian durif that I have tried. It reminds me a lot of a good nebbiolo. It's tannic and dry on the finish and yet floral, pretty, sweet and gorgeous through the mouth, roses and aniseed and gritty, minerally earth-like flavours giving it a distinctly Italianate feel. Given another five years bottle age, it should make for wonderful drinking. Drink: 2008-2015."
