Wine100, August 2009 Xanadu’s rebuilding has transformed its portfolio and this wine marks the beginning of the new era. It is a pure, focused expression of blackcurrant, coffee and capsicum fruit, underlined by powerful, super-fine fruit tannins. It will live for two decades, remarkable value.

The West Australian , West Weekend Magazine, July 2009 Has about 50 per cent new oak, which is showing just a little at the moment. Goodall is gradually getting more Willyabrup fruit into the blends. Still very tight and controlled with a long persistent flavour. Ripe firm tannins support the fruit. A long-term cellaring wine of real class.
