  April 6, 2024 - Obviously past the fresh spice stage, but interestingly appearing more reminiscent of a CdP than Barossa….secondary and tertiary flavours, restrained tannins, better with pork than with cheese

  February 15, 2020 - It is sad that this is my last bottle. This was consistent with previous experiences, and a great buy at $15.

  October 25, 2019 - Pop and pour, consumed over 4 hours. For $14.83 that I paid, this is delightful. It was slightly hot initially, but it mellowed out. It was interesting that for about 20 minutes in the middle of drinking this, I detected so much earth and minerality that it reminded me of a Northern Rhone. BUT only those 20 minutes, the rest of the time it was a restrained if obvious Aussie.

  December 5, 2018 - Pop and pour, textbook eucalyptus on this wine. Very slightly cooling, herbal, almost aloe vera in characteristic. The wine was tasty but slightly one-dimensional. The eucalyptus seemed to push out the other flavors that I could tell were present.
