Shockingly good and a pleasure to drink for a wine supposedly this far over the hill. Great shiraz flavors, not flabby at all and cough syrup notes under control. Perfectly stored from release.

Community has this nailed. Good fruity flavors, but a little grape juice/cough syrup heaviness. Too simple for a high score. Not sure this was ever any better and it's fading. But seems like this one just is what it is.

Last of 6 bottles was fantastic, intense dark fruit and complex eucalyptus herb and broader spectrum spice, a great value and lasted well, wish I could try again in 5-10 years, but they are all gone.

(Boarding Pass Shiraz) #4; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-dark; NOSE-a little tight; little plum & hints of raspberries; some charcoal coming through; TASTE-creamy; a little simplistic; reminds me of Yellow Tail reserve; kind of basic; some nice dark flavors, but lacking depth; JM-92; GV-84

Unbelievable. Still going strong. Maybe a hair flabby, but lots of good flavors going on, and held strong over 3 nights under pump. What a deal.
