Full Description

A revered cornerstone of premium cool-climate Australian winemaking, celebrated globally for its unparalleled finesse, complex fragrance, and long-term cellaring potential.This side-by-side comparison explores two distinct museum releases from the estate's library, contrasting the powerful, sun-drenched concentration of the 2003 season with the highly detailed, classically elegant, and benchmark structure of the 2004 vintage. 1x 2003 Colour: Deep, mature tawny-red with a rich mahogany core. Aroma: An intense, sweet bouquet of liqueur cherry chocolates, ripe plum, and briar, giving way to complex undertones of caramel, exotic spice, and a faint gamey meatiness. Palate: Sumptuous, velvety, and unctuous. The palate delivers profound concentration and presence, with dark cherry and stewed plum flavours backed by a serious, powerful structural frame. Finish: Exceptionally long and authoritative, where firm, persistent tannins harmonise with complex touches of tar, herbs, and dark spice. 1x 2004 Colour: Medium garnet-red with an inviting, translucent brick-red rim. Aroma: A benchmark Yarra Valley nose, beautifully perfumed with wild strawberry, raspberry, and sour red cherry, intricately layered with forest floor, sweet sous-bois, dried flowers, and classy French oak spice. Palate: Silk and precision on the palate. A vibrant, mid-weight core of red fruits is seamlessly interwoven with complex undertones of earth, truffles, and delicate stalk work, showcasing immense harmony and tension. Finish: Exceptionally long, bright, and clean, supported by a refreshing line of mineral acidity and framed by ultra-fine, powdery tannins.
