Assemblage de Shiraz, de Merlot, de Cabernet Sauvignon et Franc provenant de vielles vignes de la Barossa. Super nez de fruits noirs, tabac, cuir qui s'ouvre avec un peu de temps. La bouche est suave, avec des tanins souples. La finale est longue et savoureuse. Hill of grace ! Un jour. — 2 months ago
Nice Shiraz. Smooth, good fruit — 22 days ago
Popped and poured, enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 1998 “Command” pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity and moderate staining of the tears. Definitely some fine sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of ripe and mostly dried black and red fruits: brambles, blueberries, blackberries, dates, grilled meat, leather, purple flowers, marjoram, earth and soft baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin (mostly integrated) and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose with the addition of an umami/Maillard reaction sort of thing giving a rich, savory finish. Drink now as it’s in slow decline. — a month ago
good. Sour at first but bitter in the back tongue. Interesting taste. — 17 days ago
Rich, supple and delicious. A prime example of what the Barossa does so well, particularly in a good vintage. Blackberry, blackcurrant, dark chocolate and coffee grounds. Barb thought too much coconut oak but I didn’t think it was excessive. The next night ripe plum and oak- rich and mouth filling - through to the mid 2030’s. Your choice - rich and fruit driven or developed savoury notes or somewhere in between. — a month ago
