Australian Wine Companion – Virago Nebbiolo 2015

"James Halliday, 1st August 2019 Australian Wine Companion gave our 2015 Virago Nebbiolo a 95 rating. "The perfumed bouquet has temple spices and incense, rose petals and more.

Oz Wine Review – Virago Nebbiolos

"Pinot-like Nebbiolo with glacé cherry and mint... if this is a second label it just makes you excited about the future... Would I buy it? Sure would. 91/100"

Australian Wine Companion – La Mistura Nebbiolo 2013

"The overall impression is one of juiciness, energy and delicacy; reminiscent of a fine-boned pinot noir. 95/100"

Wine Reviewer – Virago Nebbiolo 2012

"Interjected by tangy dark cherry that dries the mouth and prepares you for the next sip, the finish has a touch of kirsch liquor with blackberry and background oak adding dimension and contrast to the wines more savoury notes. 93/100"

Wine Reviewer – Virago Nebbiolo 2011

"An elegant, textural and moreish wine that enjoys the interplay between juicy acidity, touches of baking spice... and a considerable, crunchy, dark berry fruited finish. 95/100"

The Winefront – Virago Nebbiolo 2011

"Complex and forceful at once. It sits in broody judgement as it rests in the glass – or so it seems. Impressive. 92/100"

The Winefront – Virago La Mistura Nebbiolo 2013

"It tastes of leather and campfire, dark cherry and crushed, decaying roses... As a four-year-old this nebbiolo shows signs of development, and is excellent drinking now... 91/100"

Australian Wine Companion – Virago Nebbiolo 2011

"What matters is the most attractive red cherry/ berry palate, and the balance and length of the wine. 94/100"

Beechworth and other exciting Australians

"What was more surprising was how impressive the Nebbiolos are..."
