March 16, 2021 - Drank from Bin South 10. In cellar after Swedish auction 5/22/2011. $55.00. Cork failure broke apart. Cork nose. Dark purple with cork pieces even with screen. Sour cork presentation with bitter leather finish. Past prime with no fruit. 1/10.
Tried next day. A big change, light cherry nose. Soft even presentation with lovely cherry middle and chewy dry finish. Fabulous transformation. 8.5/10. -

December 17, 2020 - Brought this to Imperial Treasure Fine Teochew Cuisine @ Guoco Tower
for a dinner with my wine mates. Theme of the evening: Wines that start with E.
Brickish red in colour with mature notes of lacquer, cassis, dark plums, rich prunes and dried berries. The palate presented some dark chocolates, mocha and aged spices.
Drinking fantastically well at this stage with all the elements coming together and pulling in the same direction. Rounded, smooth, and warmed the cockles of my heart. -

November 7, 2020 - After a few duds, this bottle is finally enjoyable and without flaws. Earthy, leathery and meaty plum with edamame-esque and ripe ripe granny smith mouthfeel and finish. On its last legs so drink up.
