July 9, 2023 - What a stunning wine, smooth with velvety tannins. Great dark fruit flavours highly recommended. Still holding up great.

August 1, 2019 - Served with BBQ'd ,Ethiopian, rubbed-spice beef strips and BBQ'd chicken drumsticks. Purchased in 1996. Clean cork. Opened in 45 minutes. Garnet/brick rim. Some American Oak coconut to nose. Tertiary aromas and flavours. Still some fruit sweetness. Medium-long finish with hint of blueberry. Definitely time to drink.

February 17, 2013 - Munskänkarna Tyresö med Jan Rosborn: Blåröd med ljus kant.
Härlig komplex doft av mörk frukt, lingon, läder, vanilj, örter, kokos, ceder.
Kryddig, lite eldig, toner av lakrits och frukt, medelstram, balanserad. Lång. -

June 8, 2009 - NobleRottersSydney - Langtons Classification (Alio's, Surry Hills): [cork, 14.5%] Another arborist’s delight, although this is a bit more mainstream [than the 98 Yalumba Octavius]. From the mass of sediment in my glass emerges a bouquet of aged spice strongly infused with coconut. The palate is still chalkily tannic; the flavours tend towards vanillan oak & developing chocolate. It’s a bit crude and clunky, and might have sung a sweeter, better proportioned song had it not been quite so pumped up with oak. This is on the way to becoming just a warm empty shell with an increasingly brittle finish; drink up fast before it gets both feet in the grave.
