February 18, 2011 - I couldn't detect any TCA, but man I hope this bottle was flawed in some other way. The worst wine ever to cross my lips.

January 6, 2011 - Had 6 bottles of this wine. The last bottle was undrinkable. However all 6 bottles has been very different. No consistency at all. Will not buy again.

August 6, 2010 - Drinking well. Some elegance, but still exhibits a typical Australian fruit-forwardness that was much more in vogue 3 years ago.

March 20, 2009 - Second bottle I had, and this time I paid a bit more attention to it. Relatively complex wine. Has quite a bit of Shiraz components to it. Also noticed a strong vegetable thing going on right after the bottle was opened. This mellowed out after 30 minutes or so.
