  May 19, 2018 - Tons of dark fruit still. Long and wide with extended finish. Very nice. Could have lived a lot longer.

  January 12, 2018 - Lots of blackcurrant fruit on first opening which became more muted after an hour giving better balance but then started to fade. Drink up I reckon

  March 5, 2017 - This was an interesting bottle, enjoyable and well made but not what I expected. still lots of fruit and holding together well after 10 years. The Shiraz seem to be dominant and has produced a sweet wine for a cab sav blend.

  December 7, 2014 - A true Barossa Cab/Shiraz with classic fruit, sweetness and savoury undertones. The wine looked inky while the legs are slow. There was moderate sediment in the bottle. It smelled like of black pepper, clove and cocao. It tasted like black currant (cassis) and chocolate. The body was medium/full with a silky texture. The wine finished long.
