Third bottle on Blue Mountain Reserve night, served with maple ginger glazed cedar plank salmon. From a magnum. Light bricking. Cherry, cedar, dark chocolate, fennel. Almost effervescent on the tongue and glides across the palate with confectionery but tart notes of licorice, raspberry and rhubarb pie. Fine grained tannins, medium-long finish. Outstanding. My wife gave it a 92. Two more magnums left, drink or hold.

Pale red. Sweet New World Pinot fruit, caramel, cardamon - quite fragrant. Sweetish fruit attack, with light red berry flavours. Simple, clean, youthful flavours and a little beyond velvety, heading towards heavy.

Consistent with previous notes. Drinking beautifully, still vibrant with succulent fruit. Big crowd favourite.
