    October 28, 2021 - Still a big robust McLaren Vale Shiraz.
    Massive dark fruit, big mouthfeel and long finish.
    Not seamlessly structured but fairly close.

    July 28, 2018 - Still drinking well. Had with 2006 Anaperna. I preferred this. A little less jammy and still lots of pepper and spice.

    December 28, 2015 - Dark in colour , powerful but I found too sweet after a 2000 Rockford Basket Press which was very good .

    July 13, 2015 - Deep opaque purple black with significant sediment. Rich and plummy nose. Round, tarry, smooth but not soft. Plum, smoke, chocolate, cherry, graphite. Excellent, perfect drinking window. Medium-long finish. Day 3, savory elements, still good balance and nice finish, excellent
