Amazing experience to drink one of Penfolds best ever wines. Bright sparkling garnet in colour. Cedar and red fruit on the nose, with the cigar box of Cabernet. Palate has plenty of power and 20 years to develop. — 10 years ago

Slight brick red on the rim belying its 35 years of age. Delicious notes of cedar, tobacco and red fruit on the nose. Complex and a bit gamey in the mouth but still very compelling to drink. Feels lighter than you would imagine. — 10 years ago
