Same wine as the 1997, except this time at 14.5% ABV, the 1997 is so much fresher and youthful, not sure whether this bottle was mistakenly labeled and was actually the 1893 vintage that @Dave apparently laid in cases of when he was a young man!?!?!? 🤔🤔🤷👀😂

Nov 24th, 2025Thick and dark fruited, richer than the 1999 Swan Estate Syrah also open, this shows a little of that tree bark note I sometimes get in domestic Mourvèdre, long finish, very fine (from a RRV vineyard planted in 1910).

Sep 18th, 2024Medium-dark purple, very youthful color, aromas of tan bark and redfruits, great balance, just a touch of heat in the very long finish, beautiful wine, can easily stand another 10+ years of cella ring!
