"This year's Johann's Garden is 92/8% grenache/mataro grown in the Barossa Valley, vinified separately and aged in seasoned French hogsheads for 10 months. Magenta-splashed crimson in the glass with super-pure fruit tones on display: red and dark plum, blueberry and boysenberry with underlying hints of exotic spice, gingerbread, purple floral tones, teacake, rhubarb, cherry clafoutis and mountain herbs. Succulent yet tending savoury on the finish with a real sense of purity and grace; superfine powdery tannin lending gentle support and a bright, mineral line." (James Halliday, 96/100, Special Value).

"A mid-ruby color, segueing to aromas of satsuma plum, kirsch, pomegranate, ume, sassafras and damson. Some-orange rind edges, as well as more resinous notes of briar and smoked meats. Mid-weighted of feel and finely tuned. A taut wine, reliant on a mandala of chalky, fine boned tannins for tension, savoriness and immense pleasure. Delicious grenache-dominant wine of a contemporary sheen."

"I tasted this fairly briefly at the winery but it impressed mightily. It’s mostly grenache with a spot of mataro. Cracking wine. So perfumed, so well shaped and so lengthy, for sure, but what really gets me excited is the profile of the fruit. It’s seriously lovely. Hay, earth, sweet raspberry, flashes of blueberry and violet with inputs from spice, almost pepper. Velvety aspect to the texture, particularly to the tannin. Wonderful stuff."

"The 2021 Johann's Garden comprises 92% Grenache and 8% Mataro. The nose leads with that sweet roast meat spice, cranberries, black cherry, layers of coulis and exotic spice. In the mouth, the wine is shaped by ductile, clothy, firm tannins (fine, though) and concentrated fruit. This is a really lovely wine: fierce and flowing, lively and restrained."

"Deep-ish purple-red colour, bright; aromas are restrained and very fresh, youthful and primal, perhaps unwooded—at least in part. The wine is sumptuously rich in flavour and fruit sweetness, persuasive tannins flooding in as well to provide a pleasant structural backbone. It's very young as yet but already delicious, and looks to have massive potential."
