March 9, 2024 - Colour pale translucent ruby slight caramel hue and bricking on the rim 15/15
Nose intensity stewed strawberry leafy mulch mushroom , spicy , great complexity and balance 28/30
Palate med+ bodied flavours from the nose still plenty of fine tannins and acidity thoughout the palate extra long finish 42/44
Overall I haven't always enjoyed this wine but the vineyard always produces the goods this wine probably at its peak at 7years great balance between fruit and secondary elements 10/11 -

April 22, 2019 - The Great 2019 Easter Marathon!; 4/17/2019-4/26/2019 (Sydney): translucent ruby in glass. leafy dark berries, mulch, moss, sweet earth. Soft blue and straw berries, even mulberry. Juicy and sweet, lifted, confection notes. Great acid balance and concentration. Most inviting and elegant. Finishes minty and umami, with hint ash. A lovely drink, and very good with Ayam Serai!
