  Great wine; lots of life. Still has a decent finish. Can easily live if properly sored for a few more years.

  The freshness belies its age. I love the sweet fruit, blackcurrant, blackberry, redcurrant, and some blueberry. Obviously Australian cab/shiraz, but delicious anyway, and exceptional value.

  Popped and decanted. Rich and mature, but not falling off it's plateau just yet. Dark chocolate and blackberries. Characteristic Cabernet-Shiraz blend with an Aussie tang on the medium finish. Great QPR at the under US$25 I paid. Drink within a year or so.

  Black as night and leads with a sweetness on both nose and palate, followed by raspberry and other redfruits and tar.

  Opened near the end of a dinner, poured out a half glass, then VV'd and chilled for a few days. Held up beautifully: I favored this over my earlier experience with a bottle, finding this one more savor and less sweet; more integrated and balanced. Recommended, and in a very good place.
