See previous notes. Classic Coonawarra mint, black fruits, dark chocolate and cigar box. Singing at 11 years but will go for another decade at least. Barb and I are flying to Adelaide today. Hire Car tomorrow for the 4 1/2 hours drive south to Coonawarra where we will be doing vintage at Bellwether for a week. Should be illuminating, hard work and rewarding with a great tutor in Sue Bell, owner and winemaker. Sue was lucky enough to be one of 12 in the annual Len Evans Tutorial a few years ago where they taste wines most of us can only dream of including flights of DRC, Rousseau etc. Sue was the Dux of her year and is in demand around Australia as a Show Judge. Should be a great week. — 5 years ago
Högg den på tillfälliga hyllan på hansa. Extremt prisvärd! Rosig, bärig, kakao, bastu. Riktig len men ändå dröjande i flabben. Tanniner. — 7 years ago

Complexity of dark fruit along with red currant berries and underneath side of tobacco leaf herb-leaf and cigar all together balances and deep on palate with yet soft structure at finishings 🤵🏼

Djupt koncentrerad doft och smak av hallon, blåbär, björnbär, en del fattoner, läder, rått kött, stor mineralitet och munvattnande tanniner. Silkigt len munkänsla, stor kropp och långt slut. Lär vara otroligt om 10–15 år, men är gott redan nu, samt svårt att låta bli. — 8 years ago

This wine has the kitchen sink in it. Dark fruit is hiding under the prominent leather, herbs, mint, tobacco, and earth. It's a fine sipper for jazz nights by the fireplace. Made my teeth red.
