98+ Points - Erin Larkin (RobertParker.com):

"I'm excited to taste this, as it was my favorite cuvée last year. It usually changes year to year, given the seasons, and I like that. It's usually the only cuvée to enjoy the benefits of an alternate vessel—a concrete egg—and this year, the 2022 The Schubert Theorem Shiraz joins the Relic and the Standish as well. The impact of the egg in this wine is one of refinement, or so I see it; it retains a purity of fruit at the core, which speaks to the chalky tannins that spool through the finish. They're chewy and seductive and really great. It's a beautiful release—not shimmering like the 2021, but textural and fine and elongated in its way. It's a beguiling wine, a thinking wine. And, as with the other wines tasted alongside, the bottle that has been open for two days is infinitely more complete; however, it must be noted that this review is built on the freshly opened bottle. 14.9% alcohol, sealed under natural cork and wax." - Wine Advocate

99 Punkte - James Suckling:

2020 The Schubert Theorem Shiraz

"Unbelievable! Another insane wine. The length of this is endless. The blue fruits and Asian spices are mind-blowing. It’s medium- to full-bodied with a mouth full of polished and refined, creamy tannins. It goes on for minutes. Endless. Seamless and gorgeous. Leave this for years ahead if you can keep your hands off it. Better after 2025."

Tasting notes Stuart Pigott, SENIOR EDITOR JAMES SUCKLING:

"I always pick wines that I have some personal connection with for Christmas, because they bring back those special moments of discovery.

When I visited the Standish Wine Company in Australia’s Barossa Valley with James and the team on the afternoon of Oct. 4 this year, I knew nothing except that some of Dan Standish’s wines had been given high ratings in the past. It was a cold wet day and I felt exhausted from hard work in the tasting room.

Then the Standish Wine Company Barossa Valley The Schubert Theorem 2020 completely blew my mind. It had the kind of fragrance, creamy texture and incredible length of a great red Burgundy, but all the spice of the shiraz, aka Syrah, grape. Tears came to my eyes and they may do so again on Christmas Day when I open the single bottle of this wine I was able to purchase from the German importer right after that tasting."
