Much sweeter bigger berry and more full bodied. 2017 Rutherford is north so the clay soil helps with the Rutherford. Medium to full body. — 2 months ago
Not an ipa fan but I can appreciate this it really does have complex layers of flavor that really just sits on the tongue with a long finish got 3 cases at my place in California randomly just showed up — 3 months ago
Bought at Pine Orchard 7/23, $12. Was expecting a richer Shiraz with the whiskey barrel aging. Just a typical Australian Shiraz, no different. — 3 months ago

1986 vintage. Ripped through six bottles (one corked) for a 1986 BDX dinner @ Mister A's-San Diego. All bottles appropriately aged fill and decent+ corks. Double decanted and tasted over the course of 5 hours. Mix of powdery and stubborn (non-chunky) sed amongst the 6 bottles. Light-medium body throughout. Somewhat muted experience overall. None of the bottles (with variation) shone/sung. Wine is firmly on the downside of the bell curve with best days behind it (based on the 5 + corked bottle examples). There was none of the usual P-L flavor markers but the body hung in there. Pains me to say this but drink up now unless you've got a larger format bottle. Maggie (+) would probably yield a higher score. 3.14.24. — a month ago
