  October 23, 2021 - Hoping this would mature faster since it was a 375 but it was still too young, a swing and a miss

  September 2, 2019 - NobleRottersSydney - even year Shiraz (360 Bar & Dining, Sydney): [Aaron] {375ml, cork, 20%} Black fruit, nutmeg and a varnish quality. Much more open and immediately enjoyable than the 2011. Off-dry, sort-of, with lots a presence along the tongue, with a medium long finish of nuts and gentle spirit. Not as hot as 20% would lead you to expect.

  October 1, 2015 - 2015 Port Harvest Tour; 9/26/2015-10/3/2015 (Portugal): Purple-black in color. Dense black fruit on the nose. Intense blackberry and black currant on the approach. Tannins are very well balanced on the mid-palate. Long finish with a touch of acidity and a little spice.

  March 11, 2013 - Great nose of Nehi grape soda. Nice purity of grape on this nose. Strong, almost astringent tannins. Tannins resolve to dry morello cherries on the nice finish.
