Dense dark crimson - almost black in colour. Red and black fruits, choc/mocha; and wild mint. An inner core of strength, concentration and intensity. The following night - Blackberry, rich, ripe fruits. A powerful 389 which will live for decades. My first of 11. Destined for greatness. 100% American Oak. 51% Cabernet Sauvignon; 49% Shiraz.

Dark ruby all the way to the rim with the tears staining the glass. The nose is superb. Smoky, herbal, fruity red raspberries and this beautiful oak influences like vanilla custard. The palate is rich and full with the fruit showing first and the spices lingering long after the wine has gone. Beautiful, mature and yet probably has plenty of life left.

More spice than a regular Cabernet. Excellent wine and drinking it with my parents and my wife to celebrate their arrival in Kansas. Good balance, really dark fruit. Excellent wine

Full bodied of dark berried fruits, aroma of tanned leather, definitely one of the finest vintage from Penfolds Baby Grange.
