Essence of Margaret River Cab. Eucalyptus City. Fresh and lovely. This is a really cracking wine. Exactly as it should be.

Sounds very good. Hmmnn, Haut Medoc from down under, and I like Margaret River wines. - moet/henessey is a good clue to skill.

Mel, how will this be in 2010 /2011 :?: I have 2002 & 2003 claret stocks that must be drunk before current purchases. Will it loose that freshness you liked ?
