Wow, kinell (as we say in the trade). All the right flavours but SO intense and powerful. You are not drinking this, the wine is allowing you to drink it. Shall leave it to go VERY cold. If still the same will add 33% something wimpy.

Another Yealands Awatere wine.

Sounds like the 2008 vintage of the Tawhiri, ( also Yealands ) intense tomato leaf flavour but very acidic.

How does this compare with the PB that you didn't like on account of you being a big girly wuss.

The big diffence is that I would buy this again but not the SCPB.
As my s/s note was made after 2100 on a Saturday, it should be taken cum grano salis.
"Heavy, herby, the gooseberry is gooseberry pie, and the peppers are cooked in browned butter. Not for swiging but lovely right place right time".
