1980 vintage. Tasting with Peter Gago at Magill Estate. One of the highlights of the tasting and seemed to improve markedly with air. Balanced and long. Quite typically Grange. A great bottle. Might keep for another decade still.

Mar 15th, 2017Slight brick red on the rim belying its 35 years of age. Delicious notes of cedar, tobacco and red fruit on the nose. Complex and a bit gamey in the mouth but still very compelling to drink. Feels lighter than you would imagine.

Oct 17th, 2015Good fresh acidity on this bottle of 82. Dark fruits with minty notes. The tannins was a little too grippy for me- I cannot imagine how this wine taste like when it was young. Overall- still a great chance to taste a wine like this.
