"This wine is a fine bargain in today's marketplace. It possesses an opaque purple color, followed by ripe (nearly overripe), jammy cherry, and cassis aromas that have been presented in an uncomplicated but rich, low acid, medium to full-bodied format. There is explosively rich fruit as well as a viscous texture. I suspect more character and complexity will emerge from this wine, which may ultimately merit an outstanding score. Crammed with fruit and glycerin, it will provide plenty of hedonistic appeal over the next 10-12 years. Rolf Binder, who also makes the wines for The Magpie Estate, produces this astonishing, full-flavored, maximum extraction, ultra-ripe wine." Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, June 1998.

"Veritas slowly gained recognition and in 1996 and 1997 was awarded the Trophy for Best Small Producer at the Barossa Wine Show and the Trophy for the Best Barossa Shiraz. In 2002 Veritas again won the Trophy for the Best Small Producer. More recently Veritas has been awarded twice in 2002 and 2003 the Trophy for the Best Semillon at the Barossa Wine Show. In 2002 Veritas were the makers of the top three pointed semillons at the Barossa Show and included the gold medal and trophy winning wine."
