Had at Eleven Madison Park. It was decanted briefly and went very well with the braised beef I got. Didn't get the full blast of oak that some Australian producers churn out so the experience seemed more refined and complemented the food rather than over power it.

I bought this bottle on the recommendation of a wine store/restaurant owner who described it as his "hidden gem," and I have to agree with his enthusiastic review of the wine. It's quite good and it's so rare that I can't seem to find it anywhere else but his store. It has a nice oak and smoky aroma with just the right amount of heat. It is somewhat rich and has a decent finish. Decanting it a bit may bring out more subtleties.
