Such a pleasure, soft and gentle fruit. Can still taste a light touch of oak. Probably a little over the top now but delicious nonetheless — 8 years ago

Decanted for four hours. My least fave of the 5 86 Firsts. A little disjointed. — 11 years ago

A good Shiraz. Would buy it again. Reminds me of the Yellowtail brand. Mmm — 10 years ago
Unique blend. A little sweet. Good table wine. Not for everyone though. Kinda breaks the rules of red wine. — 10 years ago
This is an excellent wine. Full, robust, and had a little spice to it. — 11 years ago

Ripe cherry nose with subtle earthy notes. Just a hint of the merde. Really interesting, a little funky. — 8 years ago
What can I say? I love a granache. — 9 years ago

Solid vintage from one of my favorites. Black cherry with a little bit of vanilla. Great nose but surprisingly not as full bodied as I thought it would be. — 11 years ago

Grazie mille! Nice vintage. A little young and could have used some more air. With roasted chicken legs and greens. — 6 years ago
