September 14, 2018 - Found this at Watson's in Lan Kwai Fong... new in. Nice work. Though I'd never heard of SO, I saw his other bottles were made of Hoffman (the man's a genius) grapes so I got very excited.
Sure enough this is a decent wine, but no where near the dizzying heights of my hopes. Sort of a cross between Barossa and a more purple Rhone, also a dollop of greenness as often found in whole bunch clusters with liberal does of stem thrown in.
A decent but forgettable wine for me.2,482 views

The ‘15 I opened was on a table full of SQN bottles and showed really well, so if you enjoy those style of wines, seek it out.
