REVIEWS & AWARDS: 96 THE REAL REVIEW, 95 WINE COMPANION, 95 HALLIDAY
Critic tasting note: "The year 2020 wasn't Barossa's finest vintage, but Entity fares well. It's a rich well of supple plum and blackberry fruit, dark chocolate, mint and anise, underpinned by earthy spices like cumin and turmeric, in a vanillin-oak frame that's subtle but present. The palate shows similar richness but never feels overly heavy despite the overlay of velvety, plush fruit on the tongue. Polished, well-integrated tannins keep it grounded. This is a wine to warm the cockles in winter or to pair with grilled ribs or brisket in summer. Drink now through 2030. Christina Pickard" - 93/100, Wine Enthusiast
Attractive notes of violets, dark berries and plum supported by hints of licorice and a floral lift. Bright layers of focused red and blue fruits with hints of dark chocolate and peppery spice, finishing long with fine sheets of silky tannins.
