Beautiful fruit and acidity, youthful with a nose of flint, leather, and wet soil. Paired terrifically with all of our dishes, but especially with my lamb shank. I wish I had another bottle!

Terrific expression of Australian Shiraz, aging beautifully. Nice, well integrated fruits with tobacco notes and a beautiful structure. I favored this over a 2003 Qupe Syrah that we enjoyed as a comparative tasting that we paired with Braised short ribs and roasted carrots. Happy that I still have two more bottles!

Paired with Short Ribs, this beauty was youthful and exhuberant after 21 years in the bottle. Beautiful dark fruits, well integrated tannins and at 14.1% alcohol really in its prime. I wish I had more!
