  This bottle was vibrant, fresh, and very sound. Dark purple core & firm ruby at the rim. Satisfying nose of black fruits & Asian spice.
  My favorite among 05 Amon Ra, 16 Alban Reva, 18 Mollydooker EP drunk same event.

  Almost as good as it gets. Outshone 707, Wendouree and Craiglee on the day.

  Very dark with ruby rims; cloudy crimson under the light. Strong alcohol on the nose that distracts from secondary scents of stale milk chocolate, and sweetened mushrooms. Notes of mint and eucalyptus on the attack followed by red berry notes and porcini mushrooms with a sweet mixed red berry finish. Really a fascinating wine.

  Either way past it’s prime or not a big fan of this style/producer/vintage/age.
