December 6, 2020 - Plum, blackberry, black raspberry, savory herbs, menthol, pine? Long sweet fruit finish-sweet ripe bing cherries. Flavors persist for 30 seconds or more. Deep garnet in color, very complex.

July 7, 2020 - From 75cl, cork not seen. Big, round, soft, fully-mature Barossa shiraz, fully mature but still in fine fettle. Good balance with acid-tannic backbone, bouquet garni herbal action and (duh) ripe blackberry-led fruit. 88-89P

October 17, 2015 - Drank on crisp fall night outdoors. The chill did the wine some favors. Strong tannins with concentrated fruit/jam notes. Not quite past it's prime, but drink soon before it goes south.

July 10, 2015 - opened with very jammy fruit driven palate but this was lost over time in the glass - smoothed out but maybe getting to the end of its time

June 22, 2014 - 1hr decant, drank over 3 hours. Cloudy dark purple, soft, subtle, raspberries, a little bitter on the back palate but probably because the wine started to collapse in the decanter. Easy drinking, drink now for sure it wont keep.
