Robert Parker, Jr. - The Wine Advocate:  Rated as "an outstanding wine of exceptional complexity and character".

"Performing even better from bottle than it did from barrel, the 2002 Merlot Brookman Vineyard offers complex aromas of sweet espresso roast, black cherries, and white chocolate. This is a thick, juicy Merlot with plenty of structure and tannin as well as considerable intensity and impressive volume.

It may be the finest Merlot ever produced in Australia. It will drink well for 10-15 years. 

Roman Bratasiuk is one of Planet Earth’s greatest winemakers, and obviously a top-notch viticulturist given his obsession with sourcing extraordinary fruit from ancient McLaren Vale vineyards."  The Wine Advocate, October, 2004
