  March 25, 2024 - Mature but not over the hill. Sweet red and purple fruits, low acidity, nicely done for 16 yrs old.

  December 27, 2022 - Nothing wrong with this for 14yrs young. A little pong blew off quick to expose a bright but dusty red cherry and raspberry profile. Paired with a plate of berries, smoked Brie and Porchetta 👌 #needmoregrenacheinthefridge

  October 22, 2020 - Opens with blackberry and black cherries before transitioning to a bit of chocolate and black pepper. Tannins were fully integrated and the wine had a nice and voluptuous mouth feel. Overall, a nice pour. Seems like it is drinking well now.

  December 25, 2019 - Decanted for 60 mins. Colour still deep ruby red and not showing too much sign of age. Initial licorice hit with some really ripe cherry/fruit mince type aromas on the nose. Palate is surprisingly bright and not too oxidized. Could go for longer but I’m not experienced enough to know if that would help it all that much. Great stuff.

  February 12, 2017 - Lovely perfume! Sweet purple berries and coco powder notes throughout. Somewhat restrained for Australian Grenache, with notable lift and precision. Restrained hedonism.
