"... Heathcote…is generally recognized as one of Australia's finest for shiraz" … " These are wines with awesome depth of flavour, richness and ripeness, a vinous brocaded tapestry. Typically 13.5 per cent to 14 per cent alcohol, they are extremely long-lived." James Halliday, Light hidden under an organic bushel, THE WEEKEND AUSTRALIAN, WINELINES, 09/01/1999 Pg: R21
"… some observers tip Heathcote as the very best place in Australia for full-blooded red wine (an opinion I share: as I've written previously, if I ever gave in to the urge to make wine myself, Heathcote's where I'd go)." Max Allen, The new red center, AUSTRALIAN MAGAZINE, April 27-28 2002
