Big bottle Lunch: Opened a bit mean and lean but then garnered some complexity and the fruit came up a bit. Tertiary. Clearly fading. Out of respect for what it was in its youth I won't score this.

NobleRottersSydney - Penfolds prior to 1992 (blind) (Darling Mills, Glebe): Towards the lighter side of brick red. Lovely aged characters on the nose, a slightly tarry note intrudes besides the soft cedary oak. Only just medium weight on palate, tending to be dominated a little by hard acid on the finish. Very pleasant but is clearly fading. Drink up.
