Very ripe nose - almost port-like. Palate is full bodied, rich, round, plush, but without tannin or acid to balance out the opulent, sweet plummy fruit. Barossa-like. Very alcoholic. A big drink. — 3 years ago

What a nose. Deep plush plummy fruit with violets, roses, bloodiness, iron. This is so lively and bright still. Very delineated and plush but with structure that makes everything shine. Lush and gorgeous. — 3 months ago

Beautiful deep ruby color. Enticing nose of blackberry compote accented by lavender and cardamom. Plush, fine tannins on the palate. Seamless and harmonious. Showing quite youthful. This has many excellent years ahead of it. — 2 years ago

Nice, rich, enticing aroma of blackberries & fresh black plumsc with spicy cedar and a fresh whiff of lavender. Ther’s a tiny hint of freshly cracked black pepper and allspice. Warm & rich yet nicely fresh & juicy.
On the palate this is medium bodied with beautiful, velvety, plush, juicy tannins. So finely polished. Nicely balanced with the acidity still fresh and while the fruit is slowly starting to show some age, it’s still juicy - I like the savoury, earthy side. Good depth and length, too.
This has to be peaking right now and is drinking very nicely. — 7 months ago
