January 7, 2022 - Luscious. Deep with a salty richness. Has some nice age notes, but not over the hill. Parker said it would to to 2023 and that seems about right, at least. Fades slightly on the finish, but up to then it's all there.

March 31, 2019 - Our last one. From a cool year....so more 'elegant' than typical Aussie shiraz. It is definitely showing it's age a bit more...super smooth, no tannins, lovely floral bouquet, still some fruit but with very pronounced mint, eucalyptus, cedar and spice notes. Still wonderful and would probably last several more years but expect a continued steady decline.

April 6, 2018 - Lighter than I remember. Lots of licorice this time, along with black cherry, and coffee. Still looks and smells young. Really smooth drinking. One left to consume, probably within next 12-15 months.
