Elegant and layered aroma of fresh blue and black fruits, white pepper, fennel and smoked clove. Palate echoed the nose with a touch of savoury meaty notes on the medium-bodied structure. Transition is smooth and extended, leading to a deep and lingering finish. Ready to drink now, a few more years of aging should develop more depth in the nose and the palate.

Deep purple. Blackberries, plum, forest berries, chockolate, coffee, liquorice and a little vanilla on the nose. High acidity, high alc, very well integrated tannins med+. Same flavours as nose on the plate. New layers developes with air. Great intensity and an awsome finish. Just goes on and on. In my book this is great quality and complexity at a crazy pricepoint (positive). Will probably have a positive development in the future as well 94+. Need to get more bottles.

Wonderfully vibrant colour. White pepper and tannins hit you with the flood of red and dark fruits. Medium weight and almost singularity of flavour compared to the warmer 28 tasted with it. Compared to some of older Penfolds 128 this is more austere whispering it's value rather than shouting in Ur face. Love it.
