High shoulder fill and bottle in good condition, this turned out as well as I could have hoped. Plenty of tertiary complexity on the nose with notes of old mulch (what posher reviewers call "forest floor, I suspect), a little vegemite and some dried flowers and red fruits. The palate wasn't quite as expressive but had plenty of subtle pleasure to give and held itself together pretty well over two hours. Downhill from here- drink up.
