October 1, 2021 - From Magnum. Plenty of overripe black, blue and red fruit but also dry, sweet Oak, touch of dried sage. Smooth. A value wine

July 18, 2020 - From Magnum. Decanted 45 minutes. A very pleasant surprise after seeing the WS88 score. A thank you to Spectator for bringing the auction price on this bottle so low. At first, the Oak, minerals, and sage were a bit too dominate but within a hour the ripe blackberries and blueberries emerged and the wine came into balance. A smooth wine with hints of Eucalyptus, strawberries and green pepper. This 5 noble grape wine was showing very well for hours without changing. In this size format, drink to 2027 or later.
