  September 9, 2020 - NobleRottersSydney - odd year reds (Fix, St James, Sydney): {screwcap, 14.5%} [Aaron] Quite deep yellow colour. Nutty, oaky nose. The palate offers plenty of malo character, buttery, with nuts and grapefruit. Slippery sort of oak. Medium weight. Low/medium acidity suggests it doesn’t need more time; the palate is nice and even, with a long finish that only falls a bit short for complexity but otherwise is very impressive.

  June 6, 2019 - GC with Kev and the Crew: Vanilla, grass, lemon, honey and lime. Rich fruit on the palate, this is full but has some minerality to go along with it. Mid length.

  August 22, 2017 - Pyramid Valley (Best Cellars, Crown Street): Fresh herbs, muted citrus, slight wild ferment meatiness. A little butteriness and, perhaps, a touch of oak. It's juicy, buttery, and slight oak spiced over muted fruit and some front of mouth and mid palate burr.

  April 29, 2017 - Noisy New Zealanders (Prince Sydney, 40 Hansard Street): Butter, toast, toasted notes, peach, cream over lemon. Tangy and almost zesty initially on the palate and then quite closed. Hmm. Needs a bit of time perhaps?

  February 13, 2017 - Pyramid Valley new releases: 14% alcohol. Lime, licorice, mandarin and a touch of honey. Rounded mouthfeel, with a mineral streak that run nicely through the length and does a good job of tempering the richness. Pretty good, it is well made, but a little boring when considered as a whole.
