Big Aussie blend. This one a touch subdued from a fruit point of view but a big lick of alcohol and big tannins.

Good wine from Australia brought to the party, thank you. I never expected to drink an old wine, it was older than 10 years old (2004.) My view, it’s not fruity at all, I like it tastes dry, but totally different than the french ones. Drank so many reds that night, but I still remember this one!

Really smooth and balanced. Plenty of life left but drinking well right now. Don't hold back opening this one.

Syrupy blackberry and cherry, charred toast. Sweet tannin. Herbal and medicinal, especially on the nose. Excellent!
