Thoroughly average; very fruity and highly oaked. Unremarkable Aussie fruitbomb. Can get same for $10. Will not buy again.

Too young but excellent potential here. First day a bit rough but second day really quite good. Amazingly concentrated. Not intellectual in any way but it’s delicious. Reminds me what I used to love back in the day from Australia

Really nice bouquet but brutal tannins; don't think fruit enough to compensate.

Not one of my better wine buying choices.

Tastes like $8 Chilean wine. Drinkable but not much more. A profound disappointment after Winelibrary hype.

Nice nose of classic, aged Bordeaux. Mid-palate hollow and finish quite tannic. A bit of a let down.

A complex wine; well made with aromas of earth, black raspberries and cassis. Will improve with time. Enjoyable if not superb.

Initially funky bouquet gave way to subtle floral aroma. Smooth as silk. A very nice wine.

Decent wine. Nice bouquet, average midpalate, unremarkable finish. A nice food wine. Maybe worth $35. Current price is absurd unless a Chinese billionaire.
