March 30, 2024 - Drank this sometime in 2023 and never did get around to entering a tasting note into CT. Do remember thinking "Damn, this is amazing." Truthfully it had held together amazingly well and was a testament to what the Hill-Smith family and Yalumba do with these special bottlings.

August 12, 2015 - Cassis fruit on the nose entices but hints of petroleum push through in an unusual way. Dry finish that lingers for a long while. Acidity in the body with moderate tannins 7/10.

October 7, 2012 - Past best, but still an aged classic and paletable. Dark hue and intense stone fruit with a hint of liquorice.

December 24, 2010 - Earthy and savoury with some briar, smoke and plum notes. The palate is slightly green tinged but it isn't too obtrusive. Drink over the next 5 years.
