March 30, 2024 - McLaren Vale Shiraz in a fruit, but not bold-driven style.
Medium ruby with medium aroma intensity and aromas/flavors of blackberry, black plum, black cherry, red plum, dried thyme and spices, some leather, cloves and toasty. Developing
The wine is dry with high acidity, medium tannins, high alcohol and medium +body and medium + flavor intensity. Long finish. The quality is very good and can drink now potential for aging. -

January 19, 2024 - Medium color intensity and ruby color.
On the nose has medium + intensity and primary flavors of strawberries, red and black cherries and plums, blackberries, floral tones of roses and spices of black pepper, secondary tones of cream, cloves. Tertiary flavors of dried strawberries and prunes.
On the palate the wine is dry, with medium + intensity, medium tannins, high alcohol and medium + body. Long finish and the wine is developing with potential of further aging.
The quality is outstanding. -

October 14, 2021 - Very intense, powerful and finish is long. Quote from RP “Life is too sure not to be drinking the wines of Drew Noon.”

October 19, 2018 - Maybe 90 for the texture but ... nope, 89. First hour is sour. Second hour that goes but then this paprika thing comes out like an aggrieved porkupine. Better in a couple of years. I have 6 so I hope so. RP 96, wow !?! I wish. Maybe 93 max in 5 years.
I recall the 2003 so fondly - that magnificently long legged rich beauty.
