Drank with Uncle Doug and Aunt Sue, September 28, 2022. Decanted for about 40 minutes Elegant palate yet contains depth of flavors from espresso to dried herbs Gorgeous expression of South Australia and old world wines.

From a sample from a magnum at Hedonism wines. Thick opaque color. Blackcurrant and blueberries juvenile fruit aromas and cherry kernels. Great structure with fine tannin, acidity and again black fruit and tapenade in the mouth. Smokey mid. Rich and full bodied yet it retains its elegance. An intense and persistent finish to top it up. This should easily compete with the best Bordeaux, just give it another 10-20 years in the bottle. A shame to open it now with such potential. The best Aussie cab I have yet tasted and very left bank Bordeaux. 96-97p
