December 2, 2023 - St Hugo Coonawarra Cabernet Vertical spanning 3 Decades (Merce's Castle): Our first screw capped bottle and it showed. This was very closed even after a 2 hour decant. Muted nose not giving much away. First sip showed plenty of white pepper, mint and spice. Up to now probably the most different St Hugo in the line-up. Big and dense with a medium finish. Maybe would show better with food? For me this was my least favourite vintage in the flight.

November 3, 2020 - Excellent example of Coonawarra Cab, 1 hour decant - nose cigar box, eucalypt & touch of fruit - lovely powdery tannins, followed by a fading but firm line of acid and then wrapped with blackjack fruit with touches of oak around it - really very good and to my mind no rush at all

nwebstar Does not like this wine:
October 10, 2020 - I think past its best. Suspicious first taste - some promise but with a certain faded cardboard edge. Next hour and 24 hours got worse proving its past it. Disappointing for a well cellared Stelvin capped wine.

September 6, 2020 - Dumb on opening but blackcurrant on palate with a tight tannic finish. Day 2, this had opened up beautifully, with blackcurrant to the fore, some eucalypt and a firm finish.
