  Very good; nicely balanced fruit, nose; soft tannins, although not over the hill.

  We had no idea what to expect from a 20 year old $20 cabernet from Australia.....we even had a backup bottle picked out just in case. Well, all I can say is, it was really good! Amazingly, it was still very fresh, very fruity, very smooth. Beautiful nose too. No hint of age other than completely resolved tannin and maybe a little low on acidity - but overall a wonderful bottle of wine. Lacks complexity, but overall a very nice wine.

  Deep dense purple colour, no sign of age. Complex and and subtle bouquet, pepper,spice, blackcurrant, vanilla, aniseed, tobacco. Taste; very fruit driven, followed by firm tannins which still need to soften somewhat. Rich and long lingering finish. May get better as it softens ? 90pts
