  March 13, 2004 - {magnum} This has had a hard life, merely being kept in the back room at mum & dad's, and subject to all kinds of horror temperatures, particularly in summer - to the extent where there's been a little seepage through the capsule. Level is still at the bottom of the neck, though. It's got a definite touch of onion skin about the colour, but the nose shows roasted herbs, a bit of graphite/lead pencil. There's not much fruit evident - dried blackcurrant skins perhaps. Doesn't seem to be suffering many obvious ill-effects from the mediocre storage - the wine is sort of light-medium bodied, in the old Coonawarra way. The only real criticism is that the finish is a bit short - but then I don't think this was a particularly great period in the history of the Redman winery anyway. So, still quite drinkable, no improvement left, methinks, but I guess will hold for a few years, particularly if sympathetically cellared.
