Another wine coming of age. Loads of cassis, vanilla, cherries, and a nice dollop of Coonawarra terrior with some spicy, sweet, notes. A real palate pleaser that enters solidly, good center and a 4 lapper finish. Still some tannins to resolve this wine should peak in another 2-3. 90/89. 28 by the box. WW

Opened another of these hummers last nite and the nose has really come on. Wildflowers and red fruits dominate. Smoother entry and maybe a tad longer finish. Needs to be kicked up a notch in the ratings. WW

Opened my last bottle from the box for lunch yesterday. Has definately taken it up a notch. Nose was very pronounced. The tannins were almost gone and the finish has ratched up a tad also. Thoroughly solid bottling that will please any palate. 92/90. WW
