Still a little disappointed with this one. I guess these wines are not meant to age.

This one fell a little short for me. Loved it when we tasted it 2 years ago. Did not age well with the mixed cork.

An OK wine with some potential. Except for the cork. Going for an agglomerate cork for a Rockpile wine wasn't a brilliant decision. These grapes make wine that improves greatly when aged, but with these corks, anything past 2 more years is going to be super risky

This wine really shines in mouthfeel. Smooth, with a crisp release. Rich red fruit bouquet with a nice balance of vanilla and toast.
