  From magnum and still going strong. Much complexity here. Unfortunately, also has that Aussie thing of showing acidified.

  Opened up beautifully. Strong tannins but subtle. Peppery shiraz. Great nose. Drinking superbly but still got some time left.

  From magnum and in a great spot right now. Powerful in fruit but with secondary aromas. Still quite lively. Delicious. Will go longer.

  Didn't mean to drink the magnum of 2005, was aiming for 2008. But here it is. Still does taste acidified to me on the back end but the lush fruit is still there, maybe dessicating out just a bit.
