Ignore the price, enjoy the wine. Find some - it's sold out ex-winery - enjoy a couple of bottles now, but enjoy it in five years time.
Beautiful perfume of sweet American Oak; mulberries, black fruits and a touch of cola. Smooth, velvet glove-like palate. This slides around the palate. Acid - perfectly pitched against the presence of oak. Mike Press is a product of Penfolds and is unashamedly a fan of the use of American oak.
The finish demonstrates a mocha-ish note, but the wine's success lies in its persistence of flavour. It looks simply stunning over a number of days.
