Kicking goal at 17 years old.
A culmination of vine pedigree, cork selection, proper cellaring, and decanted at the right time.
It evolved for over 3 hours.
A credit to Penfolds ability to make even lower tier wines with substance.
Soft tannin, earth, spice, surprising fruit! — 8 years ago
Rim to rim invariance of black cherry peel with smoky topaz highlights. Nearly Dense and dark as black coffee. Violets shine on a nose of plum , black currant jelly, blueberry-dark chocolate, roses with a tiny whiff of bovine, tilled soil, dried blackberries, and blueberry bran muffin. Graphite and licorice extract keep the fruity nose in check, and the burgeoning power of the palate rushes from the glass. Leather and oak frame the crushed, dried violet, in a grilled herbs de Provence, bing cherry, black cherry, and currant culmination!
What a finish. Lengthy resonance is finally whittled to a raspberry point.

Mint, seashells, lime zest, tangerines. This has so much weight. Incredible. This wine continues to perplex me. It's like a culmination of all the greatest Mediterranean coastal white wines, in a single bottle. — 8 years ago
Loads of cherry, vanilla and oak layer up and rise to the occasion towards an exuberantly heightened finish that makes your mouth water. The flavors seriously sing together in a loud culmination of tannic ripe cherries, red apple skins and young plum. — 5 years ago
Heady mushroom and a little black wood funk adjusts to clean lemongrass and white lavender with a light crepe aroma. Lemon curd and white pepper with the finest mousse that envelopes the palate completely, and beckons the lemon oil and mascarpone toast and pomelo marmalade. The culmination of these flavors lingers ethereal, floating atop chalky clouds and lime and floral essences. #grandcruvalue #grandcru #PaulEtienne #bubbles #blancdeblancs #frenchwine — 8 years ago

Perlenzauber pale ale. Classic beer good looks. Pocky white foamer, and red gold amber. Chunky, graphic, bubble-letter, rounded slick lacing, with deep space negative image culmination. Lemon zest dinner roll nose with grapefruit skin and tangerine pith. Pineapple foam. Sweet, potato bread and sweet potato elements converge into one of the tastiest beers imaginable. Lacks the over-sweet elements of halcyon tastes, but retains the echoes of its thrills. Just yummy beer and begging for pretzels. — 2 years ago
