Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, October 21, 2015 - Taken to Zucca's on the day that I learnt that they are to close at the end of the year. This bottle was part of a mixed Penfolds case acquired from one of my very first pay-checks back in the day and boy am I glad that I held onto it until now! Georgeous wine at its very peak now - this is why I collect and mature wine.

No decant, but this wine was singing from the first sip. Fruit and tannins fully integrated, with tertiary notes of leather and smoke. Lovely balance and absolutely fantastic. Shamefully, I have bought far too little Penfolds since that case...
