So, my pallet isn't shot! After a string of less than stellar to downright gone by Aussies that Parker assured me were good for another 20 years, I popped the cork on this cab. Although I didn't take notes, it was everything it should have been coming across more as a cal cab than a South American. I remember this one was big on Spectator's top 100 back in 04 or thereabouts. Maybe in the 20's? Anywho, still working my way through my bottles from my points chaser days and this one was top notch. Tonight is one Aussie that seems to have held up EXTREMELY well. 2003 Branson Coach House Single Vineyard Estate grown. Hasn't hit the lips yet, but from the nose, I think I'm in for a treat. Will post on it up in Aussieland later....
