Bought at the winery after tasting in 1999, my first pilgrimage to Coonawarra. Opened very stinky but blew off with air over 30 mins to beautiful fragrant nose and that sweet soft tannin of an aged Coonawarra Cabernet. Drank gloriously over the next two hours. Still full of life at 29 years old. — 4 months ago

2018 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 1.5 hours. Medium body. Excellent, dark color. Some leaner fruits balanced with earth and spices. On the prettier side of the ledger currently. 1.2.26. — 3 months ago

Deep crimson in colour. Notes of blackberry and other black fruits, quite bold for a Coonawarra (cool climate) Shiraz. In this warmer year of 2008 in South Australia this wine tastes more like a Barossa or McLaren Vale Shiraz than a Coonawarra Shiraz. Dry herbal notes and verging on full bodied. Being a Penfolds Bin No. red it will easily pass 20 years in the cellar. Hasn’t got the usual spice and pepper of a Bin 128 in this warmer year. — 9 months ago

Ah, J. Lohr. Lovely red of blood color. Aroma of wet leaves, earth and berry compote. Slightest hint of Band-aid. Flavors are Christmas pudding meets cherry chocolate cheesecake. Bright flavors with plenty of herbs and licorice in there. Really like fresh fruit. Apples? Yeah, I think I’ve had apples like this wine in flavor. Also has perfect balance of tannins and acids. This is really nice central coastal Syrah. — 3 months ago
