October 2, 2022 - Still going strong. Fruit forward and a deep ruby colour, but beginning to show some tertiary characteristics.

February 3, 2021 - Excellent, last bottle, still drinking really well. Same comments as earlier on 2020. Very substantial and full bodied still, with good mix of fruit and developed secondary characteristics.

December 18, 2020 - Ignore the Penfold drink end date. If cellared well it will live on for at least another 5 years. Really enjoyed it, cork had slightly deteriorated and brittle but wine was unspoiled. Not a bad vintage, but not an amazing one either.

October 9, 2020 - Excellent. Still drinking really well and similar comments to April 2020. Very robust style. Has years left.
