Decanted, had half the bottle, drank the rest the next day, much better after some proper airing. Would do well with a few more years on it — a year ago

Straight out of the bottle was not a good time. Decanted, left it overnight, poured it back into the bottle, took it to a mates place. Delicious - air this bad boy — a year ago

Lovely wine, would be even better with a bit more age. Paired it with some Barramundi and worked a treat. Good balance between the young fruity Riesling flavours and a hint of the petrol-esque notes of the older rieslings. — a year ago

Lovely mature red. Pepper notes with a burst of berries like a jack in the box. Would recommend. — 2 years ago
