opened 3 hours, perfect cork and level - dark ruby, hint of brown on rim; plum and cassis fruit, some spice and hint of earth, not particularly complex; med, ok length and concentration, grainy slightly dry tannins to fore at expense of fruit, maturity plateau, no rush. VGI (17).

Supper with Frank (Loulou's bistro, Milsons Point): Wild blackcurrant, violet, cedar, cigar box, a little tertiary leather, lovely nose. Juicy, slightly sour wild blackcurrant, leather, medium minus intensity chalky textured tannins, long. Absolutely lovely.

Drinking wonderfully. Layers of rich black fruits, tobacco, with an earthy and long finish. Like where this one is at!

Fully mature and drinking nicely. Elegant and smooth, with dark plum, tar, licorice and spice flavors.
