    May 21, 2022 - Brettanomyces. And more brett.

    Filthy. Undrinkable.

    November 23, 2020 - Excellent!

  • Handy1 Likes this wine: 92 points

    April 17, 2020 - Still sweet jammy aussie shiraz nose. Musty aged smell. Still with some acidity and mild tannins. Fruit fading but still kicking. Still very good

    April 5, 2016 - This bottle didn't have any of the magic of the first bottle. Just a nice Syrah faded from its peak.
