  Day 2, very dark colour with a good hint of brown. Very rich, spicy nose. Initially quite spicy on the palate, giving way to a lovely rich midpalate, a lick of dark fruit, but this is pretty mature, with a lightly tannic, but good length finish. A little lacking in acidity, but holds its 14.8% very well in pretty balanced. Maybe not the most subtle wine, but very enjoyable none the less. Probably at its peak, can’t see it getting much better.

  Matthew Jukes 100 Best Australian Wines (Australia House, London): Little nose, some blueberry and tannin on the palate. Not bad.

  Red cherry, meaty notes. On the palate, bright fruit and tasty, toasty oak. Concentrated, a little dried fruit on the mid palate. Medium-long. Very enjoyable.
