  January 19, 2016 - Another Epic Dinner in Zurich w/CVA, Benoit, Andrew...adding Paolo (Moevenpick 20/20): Last wine of the evening. Andrew brought this, PnP towards the end of the dinner. Label was a little shredded, some trouble with the cork - but otherwise good bottle.
  
  Color was still a good garnet core, mildly opaque. Great nose, still youthful with dark fruits, leather, cocoa and oak. Palate was classic, unmistakable Grange. Dark and blue fruits, cola, blueberry, leather. Evolved nicely in the glass over 30 minutes, picked up secondary and tertiary characteristics of burnt sugar, honey.
  
  A gorgeous, well-aged Grange. In a great spot now and should continue to drink well for some time. Well aged Aussie fruit that adds elegance to the power and uniqueness of this wine. Would have benefited from a longer decant than we allowed
