A bit of VA and somehow unbalanced acidity.

2011. It still has time. A little green on the nose but sensational on the palate

Very nice sip
A good amount of oak influence that tends to disappear with decanting
Long after taste
Good raspberry freshness
Leathery, cinnamon, earthy
Altogether still in good shape
No sediments at all
Not rush to open it

Sep 20th, 2019Palate definitely better than the nose
Oaky on the nose, but very fresh and easy drinking.

Jun 10th, 2018Always great to open an old bottle
It needed time to open up
It just tells me again that alcohol is not necessary
12.2%
Long, nice drop
I'd buy more
1983 was better to my palate though 😜

Still finishing off tasting notes from Cab tasting back in May. A blend from the brilliant 2014 vintage in the Hunter Valley. Cabernet Sauvignon 61% with Shiraz and Petit Verdot. Gorgeous perfume with typical Hunter earthiness. Light to medium weight but M+ Intensity. Hunter Valley at its best.
