2006 Bernies Blend 92 points (Nov 08)
"One of the best reds on Queensland's Granite Belt, this three way blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Mourvedre offers direct fruit aromas, elegance and length. Fine tannins make this a benchmark for the region to admire".

James Halliday's 2009 Wine Companion:
4 star rating and 96 points scored for our 2005 Shiraz. (hope you have some left!)

Weekend Australian Magazine, Wine column by Max Allen,05-06/04/08
"I was particularly impressed with the Spanish red grapes. At Pyramids Road winery, I tasted a 2007 mourvedre out of barrel that had all the spicy fleshiness and vibrancy of a new-wave monastrell (another name for mourvedre) from southern Spain."
