92pts "Omnia Nova – all become new – is old vine Barossa shiraz made in a ‘nouveau’ style. It spends a brief stint in oak before promptly going into bottle and into the world. It has that ‘just made’ feel to it. It’s like tasting direct from a barrel/tank at a winery; it has that uber freshness, that ribald fruitiness, that blinding immediacy. It’s a wonderful impression for a wine to make. Plums, cloves, mints and assorted sweet spice characters make for a high energy, highly delicious red wine. Yes please. It’s a great drink. ‘Nuff said." - Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front
91pts "Super clean and bright fruit. Polished and clean. Green peppercorns and green olives with molten chocolate, gunflint, cherry, cranberry, rose petals, velvet and a little burnt orange zest. Lithe, crunchy, bright fruit forward fun. Irresistible and juicy. Dark edged, slick texture with the right amount fruit tannin grip and a little waxy phenolics. Summertime red, maybe even a chill." - Regan Drew, vinonotebook.com
