I bought this a few years ago and never liked it much..... It had an earthy-ness almost like Pinot minus the mushroom. Now 3 years later the last bottle I held on to is open and it has rounded out nicely. Not a bottle of Smuckers, the right amount of fruit, tannins and added earthy-ness in the right proportion make this a very good wine.

Pnp'ed. Drank with friends. Has the slightly more extracted fruit characteristics that you'd expect from an Aussie wine. We'd just had a SuperTuscan beforehand so all of the wines we were drinking were in the bolder form. Easy to drink wine.

Spicy marmite/treacle nose. Quite dense; very savoury with unusual character. A little short and hollow on the mid-palate. Fine.
