Wine Advocate
'The 2009 Blue Eyed Boy Shiraz is a 20% Langhorne Creek and 80% McLaren Vale blend matured in 71% new and 29% 1 year American oak. Very deep garnet-purple colored, it is profoundly scented of blueberry and black cherry with touches of mint, mocha and the faintest whiff of damp loam. Very full-bodied, the bold, ultra-ripe fruit is well supported by medium-firm chewy tannins and medium-high acid, leading to a very long and pure if slightly warm finish. Drink this one 2012 to 2017+.' - 92 points, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, www.erobertparker.com
Wine Spectator
'Rich and ripe, with a burnt edge to the spice and dried tomato flavors that remain strong against the blueberry and plum fruit. The tannins are well-meshed. Best from 2012 through 2018. Tasted twice, with consistent notes.' - 91 points, Harvey Steiman, www.winespectator.com
We Love Shiraz
‘The 2009 Blue Eyed Boy is 100% Shiraz from the Mollydooker Home Block Vineyard and Langhorne Creek Vineyards. The wine has an intoxicating spicy nose with hints of blackberry and strawberry. In the mouth the wine fully coated my palate with velvety tannins and flavors of plum, chocolate, coffee and blackberry. The purity of this wine was amazing. It was a unified presentation of fruit with a complex flavor profile. The lasting finish had evolving flavors that begged me to take another sip. This is the best Blue Eyed Boy (BEB) I have ever tasted.’ – 98 points, Brian Pasch, www.weloveshiraz.com

‘A super saturate of black crimson colour with black heart and deep black crimson hue – fantastic colour. Aromas of liquorice allsorts, confectionary and blackberry followed by a hint of spice as an end note. Superb concentration with rich opulent palate flavours of liquorice, spice and confectionary followed by some blackpepper on the back palate. Voluptuous mouthfilling texture with velvet smooth tannins and very long aftertaste of liquorice, confectionary and blackpepper.’ – 96 points, Nicks Wine Merchants, www.nicks.com.au
