    March 25, 2020 - Fully mature cabernet and at its peak now. Real concentration and stuffing but just so mellow and rich - like a comfy pair of slippers - and a nose that reminds me of one of those old fashioned button back leather armchairs. Absolutely no regrets about drinking my last bottle. Delicious.

    March 8, 2018 - Very dark ruby purple - just a hint of age at the rim. Lovely nose of dark fruit, brambles,coffee, mint and eucalyptus. On the palate full and vigorous with round blackberry fruit, excellent concentration and powdery tannins. There is real single vineyard character here that hasn't been blended away. Drinking really well right now. The back label advises cellar 2007-2020 but in reality there's years left in the tank. Right up my boulevard.
