  NobleRottersSydney - Single Vineyards (360 Bar & Dining, Sydney): {cork, 14%} {Kim} Amazingly good save from the vintage; some just-opened bottle stink blew off quickly; then the coconut and oak aromas charge through; it’s a touch resiny, with a medium/full-bodied, rather furry palate, but a bit hollow too; there is a touch of underlying Clare eucalypt though. It’s never unripe, but the tricky vintage manifests in a patchy, shortish finish; in the end it’s a wine propped up by (quality) oak, and with nowhere further to age. Drink.

  soft cherry notes on the nose with silky but balanced fruit with a long finish - much better than previous 2000

  Opened this up this evening after keeping in cellar for 11 years. Bought in Port Douglas Queensland in 2002, stored in Tokyo, Rye NY and Saratoga CA. Delicious Syrah well worth holding on to for so long. Very mellow tannins, mellow berries with a hint port. Drink it up soon. Glad I didn't wait any longer
