Well worth the wait, this is testament to buying and keeping Aussie supermarket wine hanging around for a while before approaching it. Deep garnet colour, slightly sweet but still quite intense, lightly spiced, vanilla nose. Mid-palate built pleasantly and never over-powered, but was still deep and full with dark, brooding fruit, overlaid with light floral notes, vanilla and tobacco. Drank over 3 nights a couple of glasses at a time, this mellowed only a little over the course of time and was very satisfying throughout.
