  November 5, 2019 - Note: I use a scale on which 85 represents a very good wine.
  
  Great bottle. Dug it out of the cellar. 16 years later. Perfect balance, rich, no edges, plenty of fruit.
  Only this one.

  May 21, 2011 - Very dark color with a tint of brown-red. Spicy, peppery flavor to go with a rich smell of plums, blackberries. Lots of acidity and some tannins.

  August 9, 2009 - As good as the one we had a year ago, clearly benefits from cellaring, must buy more Penfolds for medium term cellaring - excellent money value (at 10 Euros).

  August 18, 2008 - This one has developed nicely and gives much more value after three years in the cellar. Dark berries and bramble berries on the nose, settled, smooth and a lot of bramble berries in the mouth with layers of liqouirice and mint. Very nice at about 12$ when bought. Simply pleasure :-)
