Similar to before....the wine mellowed nicely for the last 2 glasses drunk 3 days later. I like the balance of this wine, quite understated for an Aussie red. Worth tucking a couple away too maybe as I think it will age quite gracefully for a few years.

A freshness often missing from New World CS/Merlot wines. Decent balance of acidity fruit and tannin. Alcohol not too obvious either. Spicy red and black fruit on the nose and palate. Not the longest finish, but for the price this is GV.

Lunch at Dario and Maria's (Dario and Maria's place, North Strathfield): Open 4 days. blackcurrant, salinity, plums, sweet spice, slight herbaceous. Juicy, medium plus intensity acidity, tight tannins are slightly chalky textured, a little sourness lends a red hue to the fruit, slight alcohol warmth on the finish. s'okay
