This is actually getting better with every bottle we drink. This was our last and most certainly the best. Lots of reds fruit and silky tannins.

This bottle really surprised me and several friends. Tasting fantastic right now though it does appear to be at the end of its life. Excellent concentrated flavors in the mouth. Wonderful nose. Lighter tannins and super smooth and mature finish. Really enjoyed this.

Has not improved much from my last bottle a year ago. Funky nose and needed air to improve it a little. I'll drink my last bottle soon. Not great VFM.

Ok wine that got a little better after a couple of hours in the decanter. Started out light bodied but got bigger with air. A little bit confected and the fruit a bit stewed. I found it a bit all over the shop in all honesty but it is hard to say if it will improve. I have a couple more and I'll leave them for another year or too.

A nice dark garnet color. Black raspberries, licorice, cherries, and a bit of minerality and white pepper on the nose. Medium to full body with soft, ripe tannins and good acidity. Loads of spicy, peppery, raspberries, and cherries on the palate with just a hint of oak on the finish. Nice body and structure, not a Aussie, over the top fruit bomb.
