‘Sally’s Paddock is Neil and Sally Robb’s joint, a dry grown, older vine place in Pyrenees. Iconic vineyard. What a wonderful thing to see this wine.

Bright, fresh feeling red, lively and crisp edged, sour cherry and green herbs, eucalyptus and minty lift in the mix too. Sappy texture, fine sheath of tannins, soft landing and a gentle pucker to close. Refreshing red. A ripper.’ – 93 points. Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
