A pleasure to drink an old wine from an Australian Icon however it's best years are past. I wonder what the same wine would have looked like under a screw cap ?
A fully mature golden yellow in the glass with clotted cream and lanolin against background baked citrus. The palate is just holding on with citrus zest leading the charge before a return of the clotted cream and lanolin notes seen on the nose. The finish doesn't reach great heights with a touch of marzipan.
Drink now if you have any.
