Critics thoughts -Ā āThe 2022 Mount Edelstone Vineyard Shiraz is bright, supple, spicy, savory and sweet. It is complex and shapely, persistent and delicate, with notes of bay leaf, raspberry seed, tapenade, wet moss and brine. This is a beautiful wine, and one of the most lovely Mount Edelstone Vineyard Shirazes I have tasted on release. I love the wines from the 2022 vintage; it may forever live in the shadow of thehe great 2021 vintage that came before it, but not in my heart.āĀ 98 POINTS - ERIN LARKIN, THE WINE ADVOCATE

ā... itās fragrant and fresh and seems much less obviously tannic and concentrated than previous vintages. Like the 2021 it is delightfully approachable already. Thereās a note of black pepper, a bit of liquorice too. ... I would happily drink it already. This is really quite subtle!ā Ā 18+/20 ā JANCIS ROBINSON MW, JANCISROBINSON.COM

āThere are always captivating florals and spices in the perfume of Mount Edelstone, and in thisĀ more toned vintage, sage, pepper, bay leaf, and bark cavort atop the fruit notes. ... When youĀ peek behind the curtain, the fruit is sleek and polished, and the tannins are superfine. The finishĀ is as neat and ordered as any I have tasted, and given its youth and grandeur, this alone offers aĀ fascinating insight into the extraordinary balance across the entire landscape of the palate.āĀ 19+/20 ā MATTHEW JUKES, MATTHEWJUKES.COM
