  5/6/2024 - Tony Molester Likes this wine:

  Ullage very low in neck.
  Sieving recommended
  No decant, tasted over 4h.
  No sign of seepage, single piece cork.
  
  Translucent ruby
  
  P: medium bodied, has a somewhat similar taste profile with Tahbilk’s reserve shiraz of the same era. Good length and balance. I really enjoy this style of victorian shiraz at this age.
  
  Drink or hold, on a gentle slope.

  4/28/2024 - Tony Molester Does not like this wine:

  Excellent fill level
  Long single piece cork
  Sieving recommended.
  Tasted over 3h undecanted.
  
  V: dark red, high opacity.
  N: slightly stewed fruit aromas, a bit spirity.
  P: the mouthfeel is plush, with very little tannic grip. finish is hollow, some bitterness and alcoholic heat.
  
  Overall, out of balance between over-ripeness and the expected flavour intensity. I’ve had many vintages of this wine and this is a weaker vintage.
  
  Drink or hold, limited upside anticipated.
  15.5% abv

  I’ve been following these wines for a while. This vintage is my favorite.
  
  N: a bit of brett, some leather, and earthiness.
  
  Palate is smooth, tte finish is savoury and long and the alcohol (15%) is well integrated.
  
  Drinking at near peak now.
