December 7, 2014 - NobleRottersSydney - Christmas Lunch 2014 (Greg's place): {cork} Decanted an hour earlier. Don’t know if it helped or not. Muddy brown. Scary looking. Smells like Jeffrey Dahmer’s refrigerator. Faded and old on the palate, no tannin, not much flavour of interest; pretty much dead.

January 22, 1992 - Saturated, medium deep, dark red colour, starting to show some maturity; warm and open nose, ink and liquorice, good fruit of cassis and blackberries, new oak, vanilla and citrus, slightly alcoholic but good depth; fleshy and mouthfilling palate, rounded and soft, ripe tannins, does not lack elegance owing to its firm acidity; very good length. Robust.
