March 27, 2024 - Angelica Wine Club - Italian (Noi Restaurant, Petersham): herbaceous, touches of tobacco leaf, earth, charcuterie, leather, slightly oxidised notes, baked cherry. Medium plus acidity, cherry, slight blackcurrant, wood and grape derived tannins are chewy.

December 17, 2023 - Fresh nose with meaty notes, ink, and black cherry. Refreshing and pleasant palate, with a slightly tannic finish. Rated 92-93.
Nez frais, avec des notes viandées, encre, cerise noire. Bouche fraîche et agréable, finale un peu tannique. 92-93 -

October 9, 2020 - From 375ml bottle, 30 minute decant. Nice rich dark red fruit, tobacco and earthy notes. Showing some nice mature notes. Excellent overall. Great match with rare grilled venison chops.
