This wine has aged like a queen! Balanced, matured dark red fruit, spices intermingle to deliver an excellent wine. There is fresh fruit that is unexpected and velvety tannins that say enjoy!! I would say this wine is at its peak. Fruit is still there and tannins and acidity are well balanced. Enjoy!!!

Only, deep, brooding dark fruits, subtle hints of earth, big but smooth, will provide enjoyment for many years- enjoyed with a rare porterhouse at Duchess in Melbs
