December 22, 2012 - A deep to ruby red in colour, the nose has floral red cherry characters with a more firm undertone of damp earth.
The palate is masculine and takes some time to unfurl with dark cherry dominant; French oak frames the wine and there is considerable fruit driven length on the finish.
This wine is yet to reach its peak, with a few more years in the bottle expect to see the complexity on the mid to back palate to continue to grow.

December 31, 2010 - Taste of Tasmania 10/11 (Hobart): {screwcap, A$40} Thoroughly dumb nose. That was unexpected. This is a slightly leafy palate, not unripe, with soft dusty tannins (noticeable oak) and medium acid. Can’t find a lot of flavour – it’s all texture, this wine, but still only comes up to a short-medium length finish. Too expensive to gamble on this.
