Class act 15-years old and still youthful. Decanted a hour. Wonderful oboes of cassis, cedar box & brooding dark fruit! This is a bad boy! It is silk on the palate with wonder black fruit, — 9 years ago

Lovely aromatics, subtle spice and cedary oak complexity. Really velvety texture and fresh layered fruit flavours. In fact excellent integration of flavour all round! I am really stoked about this wine. It's a sexy, elegant silk dress....made from fruit. And yes.... I would wear it.
