"Superbly fruited and fragrant, the wine shows blackberry, smoked game, toasty oak and rich floral aromas, leading to a generously expressed palate delivering terrific weight and intensity. Wonderfully framed by silky tannins, finishing long and delectable. At its best: now to 2031" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2023

"Dark and densely coloured with concentrated dark fruit intensity on the nose. The palate is full bodied and imposing with opulent dark fruit flavours, vanilla and mocha warm spice. The tannin is well integrated and the finish is sumptuous, long and velvety" Cuisine Magazine, 2024

Intense ripe fruit with a hint of floral. Complex layers of blackberry and liquorice with fruit sweetness and spice. Full bodied with well balanced oak giving a toasty, vanillin finish.

Estate grown at Reillys, St Clare Vineyard, Watervale Rich red loam over deep limestone. Cold soaked with prolonged skin contact. 100% French oak Hogsheads - 18 months.

Barking Mad pays tribute to the Reillys winery Daschunds past and present who, upon hearing the Bedford truck rumbling down the road laden with fruit, go completely barking mad! Enjoy this wine with friends, be they furry, mad or both!
