April 15, 2023 - Excellent repræsentation of Aussie Cab
Fruit forward, blackberry and red berries. Lots of secondary aromas, primarily oak driven. 11 years into coming of age also some beautiful tertiary aromas tobacco, clove, marzipan. Med+ acidity and oak tannins to keep the sweet berries in balance. Long finish. Easy drinking. Had with bearnaise, caramelized onions and steak which turned out to be a perfect match. -

December 31, 2022 - Deep boquet of red fruits on the nose. Elegant and rich.
Smooth pallate with some freshness but with some development/tertiary flavours coming through. Tannins are integrating very nicely with only a slight amount of residual tannins detectable if you look for it.
Definitely in a good spot for drinking now although there is sufficient fruit and slight tannins to support firther development in the cellar.
Sweeter than previous vintages (perhaps too sweet) however it offsets a very slight sourness.
Not sure how long to keep it but estimate good drinking for up to 5 more years. -

October 31, 2015 - Tasted this during Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate's Matter of Taste @ The Grand Hyatt, Singapore.
Rounded and smooth, with some slight green vegetal and red fruits notes. Young. Give it another 5 years before consumption. -

February 25, 2015 - Check-up on Australia with Tim Wildman, MW (Adelaide/Barossa): Dark purple. Expressive nose with a conspicuous green pepper note, capsicum and some dark fruit. Medium bodied with granular tannins, medium bodied. Was this picked fully ripe and were the tannins appropriately managed is the question here. To be revisited.
