Superb wine. Beautiful dark cherry with fine acidity. Love lovely length and very enjoyable on the palate. Should last another few years but no need to wait.

Wonderful combination of Cabernet and Shiraz grapes. Beautiful length and still showing primary fruit but has developed some secondary bottle characteristics. Has at least a decade of life in it. Really looking forward to having the next bottle.

Wonderful wine, amazing to have a granache at 20 years and still feel that it has more to give. Full bodied great length super fruit. Easily will last another 3 to 5 years but no reason to wait.

Easy drinking mid week pizza wine. Great nose with full on fruit. Interesting full pallet but a bit one-dimensional.

11/18/2023 - RobertLA Likes this wine:

Good, but not great. Full front-end of rich Satsuma plum followed by dark. Salty cherries at the back palate. Good length, but a bit monotone. probably will go through 2028, but no reason to wait.

Great wine and drinking well now but would benefit for another 3 to 5 year cellar time

6/1/2023 - RobertLA Likes this wine:

Still has high acidity on the front palate. Fruit is subdued. Drank this after one hour decant. Think it needs a bit more time.

5/29/2023 - RobertLA Likes this wine:

Wow!!! So complicated Fortified on the nose but after a 2 hour decant it exudes quality. Would have bet money it is a Shiraz viognier blend and lost. Rich bright fruit on the palate Great length Fine tannins Sooo good. Drinking perfectly now but has 5-10 years ahead So happy I can come back to it again

5/21/2023 - RobertLA Likes this wine:

Outstanding Drinking perfectly now balanced fruit with great length

5/5/2023 - RobertLA Likes this wine:

Decanted and left for four hours. Initially strong taste of tannins which then led into a strong acid front-end. Still way too young, needs at least another five years.

Drink wine over two nights. First night decanted for one hour. Beautiful fruit, great length. Second night straight from the bottle. Wow, thought last night was good but there’s just knocked it out of the park. Gorgeous Wine glad I’ve got more

1/11/2023 - RobertLA Likes this wine:

Decanted, after aeration for two hours. Wine progressively opened up. Needed food to reduce the impact of the tannins. Wonderful expression of a Barolo. Great length. Fruit fully expressed tannins initially, harsh, but receded with time. This wine still has a decade ahead of it. Wish I had another bottle.

1/8/2023 - RobertLA Likes this wine:

What a wonderful wine, drinking perfectly now. Beautiful expression of Pinot on the nose with a lovely mouth filling cherry flavour. Extraordinary length. No sharp edges in this wine. Really happy that. I’ve got another bottle.

1/1/2023 - RobertLA Likes this wine:

Very typical of Coonawarra Cabernet. Needed aeration and one hour decant to bring out the full flavour profile. Still has youth on its side but secondary bottle characteristics are on show. Will easily go through to 2030.
