Tasted blind. Pinot came through strongly on the nose, Cab more on palate. Quite bright and fruity but well structured, round, balanced and fairly long. And at 12% you can drink it all night. A pleasure, but definitely more bright than deep. 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Shiraz, 18% Pinot Noir, 9% Merlot, 6% Malbec. 12% abv, $25.

Fragrant lifted nose; uber friendly. Palate is relatively low key and almost stalky with bitterness. I like what I see but strangely somewhat unfriendly.

The 2008 is still drinking beautifully, but the 2010 lacks concentration and finish. Tipped my last bottle down the sink.

Pleasant, but lacks structure and finish. Tastes almost watery at the end.

Bibendum Public Portfolio Tasting 2014 (Sydney, Australia): Perfume, stalk and graphite. Nice balance, a little stalk to it but it is part of the wine rather than standing on its own. I like it.
