"Ink black core into a deep ruby rim. Mulberry and mocha aromatics. Deep and rich with plush black fruits wrapped in dark chocolate, coffee and vanilla notes. great line built around a firm, fine grained tannins that carries it with drive and power to a long finish. A lot of wine for the price." 92 Points, Stuart Knox, The Real Review
"Gee, I like this wine. And I like it better than the 2021. Black fruit, hazelnut and chocolate, a little mint and dried herb, some perfume too, cold brew coffee. It’s rich, fleshy and a bit ferrous, cherry jam, the acidity sits well within the wine, and while it shows some nougat/spiced coffee oak, the generosity of flavour and impact here is really pleasing. It closes grainy and firm, with a slight chicory-like bitterness. It’s good." 92 Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
"From estate vines mostly 50 years old on terra rossa soils. A core line for Coriole, this feels like a wine made to reflect the evolution in making at this address while still satisfying loyal long-term drinkers. The impact of the soil lends the cherry and brambly-berried fruit a certain concentration and power, though the house tendency to freshness and balance is also on show, with oak (all French, 25% new for 18 months) a notable but well-integrated steward."91 Points, Marcus Ellis, Halliday Wine Companion
The Lloyd family founded Coriole in 1967, and are considered pioneers in the McLaren Vale region, and visionaries in the planting of Italian and French varieties. Long before it was fashionable, Mark Lloyd developed vineyards of Sangiovese, Picpoul, Chenin Blanc, Nero d’Avola, and others, plus of course, Shiraz. They are considered one of the leading lights of the region.
