First time trying an old Felton Road and a Block 5 courtesy of Can. Forest floor, some black fruits. Great concentration with depth and intensity of flavour. Good length but never felt over-blown or heavy. Shows why this wine is an icon. 94 points — 11 years ago

Last one left of a vertical tonight, I have another saved for a few years down the road, weird this 2004 was my fav even up against the 01, 05 and 07 — 12 years ago
Possibly the best Australian cab I've tasted. Would never have guessed it to be Aussie, blind. No fruit bomb here. However, it's hugely concentrated. Blackberries, tobacco, cassis, some pomegranate. Still massively tannic at this stage; still a baby at ten years old. A serious zing of acidity. This baby has it all. Finish lasts for nearly minute. Our tenth Valentines Day. — 10 years ago

Big bold and beautiful. The bouquet flies out of the glass. My little brother introduced to Gamba and loved it since. The 2011 Starr Road brings everything black in fruit. Black cherry, blackberry, black raspberry and even a little bit of black currant. Mellow tannins give a lasting finish that slides down like liquid silk. — 10 years ago
Deep, inky purple in the glass with generous blackberry flavors and a spicy, tannic finish. Never met a Hartford Zin I didnt like... — 11 years ago

Improves with decanting. Subtle fruits with dry finish. — 10 years ago
