7/21/21, 2:42 AM - Bang on note, nailed it
4/28/20, 12:46 PM - Thanks for the note. Care to take a stab at an optimal drinking window?
4/28/20, 5:08 PM - Interesting, thanks for the advice. I've sampled a few of the Little Wines but have held off on the HD on the assumption some time would be beneficial. Might have to give one a try.
4/16/20, 3:10 PM - Any suggestion on a peak drinking window Lindsay?
8/17/19, 9:39 PM - You're a lucky man :)
2/6/18, 11:02 AM - Interesting comment, I have a few of these tucked away.Honestly would have thought that they are still along way from being ready.Gross generalisation, but do you think that Coonawarra Cabs have more ageing potential than MR? More acid maybe?I too have moved away from CW towards MR, just wondering.
1/31/18, 11:51 PM - Hi Nick,if I recall correctly I opened mid morning & let it slow ox for about 5-6 hours and decanted around a hour or so prior to drinking.Lovely wine, more Barbaresco than Barolo.The orange, citrus notes were striking.Hope you enjoy
12/28/17, 10:26 PM - Yeah that's probably about rightI had a '98 earlier this year & it was singingTo be fair the 2010 was right at the end of a loooong Christmas day, more of an afterthought than anything. My palate was pretty fatigued by this stage =)Went down well with the rest of the family though.
11/6/17, 10:26 PM - Have you tried one yet? I'm more a Marg River fan than Coonawarra so it could be a personal thing.Will leave the rest along for a good rest, not entirely convinced it has the stuffing to go the distance.Certainly hope I'm proven wrong.
9/25/17, 12:31 AM - Peaked? Not sure. Certainly in the window, but no real rush. Possibly more upside over the next 5-7 years, just can't see it becoming anything stupendous on this showing. It was definitely an enjoyable experience though so I wouldn't worry.Could be a case of lofty expectations given the pedigree of the producer & the vintage in WA.
8/16/17, 3:53 AM - Wow, that's some pretty unflattering reviews!!I must say I wasn't bowled over, especially given the reputation & vintage.But I didn't find them that bad.Do you think there potential there for future development?
7/22/17, 5:27 PM - I'd say it's ready to go now, but certainly another few years won't do it any harm.I can't see it as a long term proposition, say now until 2023.Although I note that MB in his review puts it out to 2028+ so I could be off the mark.
7/7/17, 3:23 PM - I saw your comment on my recent note concerning the 2011 last week. Do you think this 2012 is more approachable now than the 2011? Considering committing Vinfanticide again this weekend!!
Thanks for letting us know about this problem. We will review your comments and be in touch soon with an update.
