2007 W100 Grenache: Silver Medal, 2010 International Wine Challenge

2007 W100 Grenache: “Screwcapped BBQ wine. Lots of sumptuous fruit, big and alcoholic and as Australian as a hot afternoon, but very well done. VGV. (very good value)“ Jancis Robinson's Special Summer Guide to Her Favorite Wines for Long Hot Evenings - Financial Times June 26th/27th

2008 W100 Cabernet Shiraz: Top 100 Wines 2010 “This is Willunga 100’s top wine and it is no surprise that this visionary red blend works, coming as it does from one of the finest Cabernet and Shiraz growing regions in the world. For ten pounds you can drink a wine that knocks anything from Chile (at five quid more) into a cocked hat. So don’t waste any more money - follow this juicy and authentic red, and others like it, on this list and they will never let you down.“ as voted by Matthew Jukes, 2010 www.matthewjukes.com

2009 W100 Pinot Gris: Silver Medal – 2010 Decanter World Wine Awards

“Drawn from specific blocks within the cool of South Australia’s Adelaide Hills and true to its variety and style, this Pinot Gris [has] full and lifted smells of ripe, in season pears, mush and lanolin, [which] give way to a mouthful of wine that, long with plenty of stone fruit intensity, delivers real weight and texture.“ Matt Skinner, Sunday Life Magazine – Sun Herald May 16th 2010

2006 W100 Cab/Shz: “Brilliant colour; medium - to full bodied; has abundant black fruits in a positive palate with good drive and complexity; ripe tannin and good oak handling”. Rating 94 to 2016 - James Halliday 2009 Australian Wine Companion

2006 W100 Cab/Shiraz: Silver Medal - “A huggable red with sweet, open, vibrant punter-friendly flavours. A wine to be enjoyed fully when you are having a night off and you want to kick back and not be troubled by the complexities of life (and wine)” - Taste Food and Wine 2009. Matthew Jukes, Tyson Stelzer

2006 W100 Grenache: “Vivid red-purple; unusual elegance for Grenache with silky raspberry and cherry fruit flavours. Fine, ripe tannin's oak merely a maid servant”. Rating 93 to 2010 - James Halliday 2008 Australian Wine Companion

2006 W100 Cab/Shiraz: Blue Gold Award - Sydney International Wine Completion, Top 100 Wines

2006 W100 Cab/Shz: “This epic wine won a medal in my Great Australian ‘Red tasting, which I judged a few months ago. My advice is load up with as much of it as you can afford, as it is a spectacular lesson in blending” - Matthew Jukes, Daily Mail Weekend Magazine, Sep 08
