  Drank 8 years beyond its recommended “drink by date of 2014. Decanted for 2 hours before final tasting. Still enjoyable. No noticeable faults.

  Mid-red. Quite developed. A gentle wine with mid-bodied slightly stewed red fruits, a tough of earth, and an even, modestly long finish. From my cellar since release, under cork. Decent enough wine. Good value back then for about $17 Aussie a bottle. Questionable if it had cost modern RRP.

  I was happy w/ the value of this bottle. That said, it seems to be on the downside, with a more muted nose and slighter body than I imagine that it had in its youth. Gave off a lot of sediment after an hour or so.
  Palate had slight hints of black olive which went nicely w/ Mexican short ribs.

  Decanted with little sediment. Starting to brown around the edges. Nice dark sweet fruit and spice. Just like the label says. Drink up.
