"The 2008 Magill Estate is both restrained and opulent,elegant and complex and simply hedonistic.Fruit spices and mocha cherry on the nose with long,lingering flavors that caress rather than bludgeon the palate.A balance of spices,firm tannins,and gorgeous ripe fruit will allow the wine to age for 10-15 years".
(94 Points).
Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. 2010).
"Purple-crimson,the bouquet displays ripe plummy fruit in a cradle of obvious,although integrated oak;the medium-bodied palate has a mix of plum and black cherry fruit and supple,almost papery tannins.Spent 12 months in 72% new French oak and 23% new American hogsheads".

James Halliday.(The Australian Wine Companion. 2011).
"I've never really got excited about Magill - until '08! With its insanely early harvest (Feb 5th - record!) and a higher proportion of French oak than ever (more than three-quarters),suddenly this legendary old vineyard leapt to a new vibrancy of blueberry fruits,anise,and pepper.A frame of intricately textured tannins cascades into a finish of supreme focus,supported by dark chocolate oak.It will unravel magnificently over the coming decades".
(95 Points).
