    April 21, 2023 - Ullage high. Cork intact, but soft and soaked almost to the top. Aged nose: cherry jam a hint of soy sauce, with a dusty library background. Concentrated flavour of cherry jam, with a hint of liquorice. Tight, neat palate, with silky tannin and juicy acidity.

    June 25, 2022 - Opened my last two bottles tonight. Great drinking Syrah which proves the value of long term cellaring.
    Even after 16 years this is a lovey complex wine with the last remnants of fruit, lovely soft tannin and balance

    November 12, 2021 - Initially opened, smell of old leather Oak. Needed to be aired several hours.
    Cork is still pretty good for age, no seeping into the cork.
    Not as rich and intense as Liandra.
    Smooth tannin obviously
    Not as sweet dark fruit as well, medium I would say. Some tannin present with bitterness or dark chocolate rather. Sediment is minimal which is nice. Still pretty good.

    February 17, 2019 - 3 of 4. decanted for 2 hours. Trying to do anything to get some life out of these bottles. Fruit is flat. Obtained through auction - maybe the bottles. Underwhelming.
