July 9, 2016 - Nice wines; 7/8/2016-7/9/2016 (Geelong VIC): I normally love these wines but not this one. Very pithy and lacking elegance. Atypical for this producer, a bit astringent and seems quite acidic which further narrows an already lean palate. Not unexpected as it wasn't a great year for the Yarra. See the 2010, 06 or the 04 if you want the real thing.
