Nice characteristically Châteauneuf blend, only a bit lighter 13.5%, easier in the palette, and very nicely smoothed in time 1998 drank in 2025 — a month ago
It didn’t go well with turkey—what actually does?—but damn this was excellent. Deep, complex, tannin very well managed, surprising acidity. 14.4% alc. Second killer bottle of this. It’s going to be hard to leave the last one alone for a few more years! — 5 months ago
Ripe, juicy berry and spice flavours from a winemaker who knows what he is doing. A classic Barossa shiraz with many years of good drinking. — 4 years ago

Perfect cork.
Fantastic ripe plum notes to the nose and palate. I don't know the exact blending percentages of the grapes, but assume CS is dominant since it's listed first on the back label. But, the Merlot is most prominent at this age and it's singing a beautiful song tonight after 3H in the decanter. Last bottle from release purchase in April 2006, winery direct. — 6 months ago
Great pepper spice, dry savory flavor — 6 years ago

High intensity aromas of black fruits - blackberries, black currants, blueberries. Dark and milk chocolate, cocoa, coffee and sage. Palate matches the nose but interestingly, not as intense as you would expect from the bouquet. — a day ago
