Gorgeous full bodied Aussie Shiraz with licorice, cassis in abundence in perfect balance and some sweet berries mingled with a perfume bouquet and a long finish...I think tis wine will be drinking just fine for some more years...as long as the cork can stay intact. Drink with extreme pleasure...

Ran through a vinturi and then an hour of decant, the nose is HOT, and comes across more like a port than anything else with blackberry, vanilla and mocha all yelling at you. The palate is surprisingly well balanced and does not mirror the nose, with oaky notes strongly standing out and the fruit prominent. A medium mouthfeel with an extremely long finish round out this great bottle.

this bottle is on its final legs so drink up. Classic barossa shiraz flavors.

This is drinking great right now. It seems like it could go another 17 years.

Still going strong. Very beautiful full bodied wine. Rose petals, sweet violet perfume, mild cocoa and tobacco
