"Splendidly ripe and inviting, the bouquet shows black/blueberry, rich floral, toasted spice, and fine oak aromas. It's weighty and plump in the mouth displaying terrific fruit richness backed by plush texture and plenty of polished tannins, making it generously flavoursome with a lengthy, robust finish. At its best: now to 2038. $55.00. www.colonialwinecompany.com.au. April 2026."
