November 18, 2018 - Golden syrup colour. Nose of overripe apricot and other stone fruits, toasted orange zest, Cointreau, bag of raisins, overripe fruit bowl with feijoa and a bit of pool toy. Palate syrupy with strong acidity, sharp lingering finish. This is damn good and ever drinkable on day 3.
Glorious. -

December 31, 2015 - Very rich wine with heaps of apricot. Subtle acidity balances the massive RS but not the freshest of finishes. Should drink well for over a decade.

November 15, 2015 - Just a terrific balance of tangy apricot and orange (with crucial acid support) against toffee and brûlée, plus lots of lively gingery spice. Lower viscosity for this style, which I liked. Spot on.
