My last, but still showing beautifully. White cherry and exotic melon fruit, a waft of vanilla oak and a touch of capsicum. Pebbly minerality and balancing acidity. What's not to like? Would certainly see the decade out.

Showing no sign of coming off its peak of excellence since last year. Much as my last note, the acidity more integrated into the whole. Till the end of the decade. One to go.

Impressive concentration of viscous ripe white stoned fruit and green capsicum balance. Excellent and, I suspect, still evolving. Beautiful now, but as per earlier note, no idea where this will be at the end of the decade - undoubtedly will hold at worst till then.

A few months in my cellar has significantly added to the focus and concentration of the wine. Clearly on an upward trend. As per first note - just more so, notable extreme length. Excellent. Will seek out different vintage to compare and contrast. 91+
ps: have just spent 30 mins bringing our horses in and still I can taste the wine on the palate. Have therefore upgraded to 92 from original note above.

Opened 60mins before drinking. Juicy up front exotic fruit with a balancing green capsicum spine and a subtly applied veneer of old world style oak. Dry, medium bodied but with good length and grip. Racy. Excellent and drinking nicely now - haven't a clue whether will improve further with age. Will drink my remaining bottles at regular intervals and find out! 90+
