December 23, 2013 - The wine looks Ruby colored. It smells like Blackberry, and Mineral. The body is Medium. The wine has Polished texture. The wine finishes Medium. Decanted for 2 hours. Some sediment. This bottle may have been slightly past its prime.

September 29, 2012 - There is not much fruit left in this. The last of my bottles and its about done. In 09 I rated it 93, in 10 it was 91, in 11 it was 90 and now its not anything like it was at its peak. Drink up.

April 28, 2012 - - Garnet color and aromas of blackberry, tobacco, black currant and black pepper. It's balanced and has flavours of eucalyptus, blackberry, burnt toast and oak with a medium/full body. Satin-Like texture with a long finish - Surprisingly very delicious.
