Thomas is widely regarded as the father of the South Australian wine industry.

92pts Ken Gargett, Wine Pilot
'Dark maroon hue, the nose offers aromas of tobacco leaves, blackberries, soy, licorice, bergamot, chocolate and coffee grinds. Focused, with bright acidity running the full length of the journey, there are satiny tannins and the wine offers good length. This is still very much in the youthful camp and it certainly promises more for the future. Very attractive and should remain so for the next ten to twelve years.'
