The 2010 vintage of the Cabernet Sauvignon-Shiraz blend was given 97-points in the 2016 edition of Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion.

Eight McGuigan wines were awarded 90-points or more in the guide including  for its Riesling, Chardonnay, Bin 9000 Semillon, Handmade Shiraz and Shortlist GSM, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, while chief winemaker, Neil McGuigan, said the results were “fantastic”.

He said: “To receive over 90 points for wines across the McGuigan portfolio – let alone a 97 for McGuigan’s first ever super premium wine – is just fantastic.

“We are so proud to have our core brand acknowledged in this edition by one of the Australia’s most esteemed wine journalists.”
