	✪ 2014 Stonefish Reserve Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon “Margaret River is the go-to region par excellence if you are prepared to pay for quality at a win-win price, and to do so over time. This has it all: bell-clear blackcurrant fruit, black olive and dried herbs the tannins round and ripe.“
	✪ 2013 Stonefish ICON Barossa Valley Shiraz “An ultra full-bodied shiraz, hand-picked, open-fermented and matured in new and used French oak. The masses of savoury extract is so intense it approaches (although ultimately falls short of) outright bitterness.”
	2013 Stonefish Reserve Barossa Valley Shiraz “This is full-bodied, with plenty of fruit, but sandblasted by the amount of oak. Those who love oak should try it out ? they may love it.”
	2012 Stonefish ‘Raffaele’ Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon “The first signs of moving out of primary into secondary mode look as if they may soon gather pace; there are some earthy/briary notes (and violets) joining the fruit.”

	✪ 2012 Icon Barossa Valley Shiraz “Hand-picked, open-fermented, matured in new and used French oak. In a bottle weighing several kgs. Vivid crimson-purple colour heralds a high quality wine and expensive package, the cork the best money can buy; there is a perfect symbiosis between the blackberry fruits and exactly judged and integrated French oak. This is a giant leap forward for the Stonefish brand.”
	✪ 2012 Reserve Barossa Shiraz “This is a very smart Barossa shiraz, immediately ticking all the boxes; there is an energy to the purple fruits that lifts the finish into a fresh, juicy mouthfeel; soft, ripe tannins and integrated oak add a dimension to the well balanced plummy finish.”
	2013 Margaret River Shiraz “Light, clear crimson; a light to medium-bodied fresh and juicy wine with red fruits dominant and some black cherry nuances; no obvious oak. Drink tonight and be happy stuff. Well priced.”
	2012 Blackwood Valley Merlot “Another carefully sourced and well made wine under the Stonefish umbrella; notes of cassis and sweet plum fruit will meet the target market.”

	✪ 2012 Clare Valley Riesling “A generously flavoured Riesling, already with sufficient depth to provide immediate enjoyment; a mix of lime, apple and white peach provides a tapestry of flavours on the long, even palate; there is enough minerally acidity to keep the wine in shape over the next 5 years.”
	2010 Limited Release Hunter Valley Semillon “Gently developed in a most attractive fashion. Tastes of brine, lemon and wax and has excellent extension through the finish. Medium in terms of intensity but regional/varietal expression are clearly stencilled.“
	✪ 2013 Margaret River Sauvignon Blanc “Well composed. Pale colour. Gravel, citrus, cut grass and tropical fruit. Compact cranks of flavour but with good intensity and momentum through the mouth.“
	✪ 2013 Margaret River Chardonnay “Attractive mix of grapefruit and pear-like fruit with just-enough spicy oak to give it a completeness. Crisp and clean. Slightly bitter on the finish but not necessarily lesser for it. Clear sense of regional/varietal identity. Great value.”
