Subtle. :) Doesn't seem to rate as well as the 2019. Looking forward to Andrew Caillard's score for the 2020... haven't spotted one yet.
The real review gave it a good wrap and I could not resist.
Rich and weighty
Colour is impenetrable at the core core to a deeply-stained ruby red rim. Mulberry, ironstone and dark chocolate aromatics. Rich, dense and weighty, a powerhouse shiraz that’s loaded with dark berry fruit and layered complexity of savoury graphite and mocha notes. Tannins are powerful but wrapped in velvet, so the palate glides with great persistence to the drying finish. Many years of enjoyment will be found here, and while it’s not cheap it offers great value.
 
For those who are living in Sydney:-

Costco Marsden Park has the Yarra Yering Agincourt Cabernet Malbec on clearance at $49.97. Still has a few bottles left. I haven't tried this one so I just grabbed two bottles.
Suggest not picking up some of their lettuce ... 😲😵‍💫

"People are quite sick... to the point of marked hallucinations, where they are seeing things that aren’t there.

My bolding. What other types of hallucinations are there?!
 
My wife's friend visited one of the victim's home and saw everything. The whole family got poisoned. They look like having drugs with uncontrolled arms and talk strangely. The ambulance guy said he saw at least nine people get poisoned by eating the same thing from Costco.

My guess on this spinach affair is that belladonna was somehow added to Popeye's mix causing side affects very similar to when folk were given extra strong batches of Kwells travel sickness pills a decade or so ago. Dry mouth, blurred vision, nausea, constipation all sound like similar side effects. Should have gone to Yoland Lim's place in Watsonia where of course he promised " No side effex". Great telly ads back in the daze for those that remember.
 
How do auctions with Langtons work? I'm looking at a few bottles of Wynns black label cabernet from 2003 - any recourse if the bottles are corked?

Not through Langtons but likely directly with the winery.

I've purchased older Penfolds under cork via auction (not Langtons). Opened a few years after purchased and contacted Penfolds about the corked bottles. They sorted me out.
 
$40 is a lot for the Wynns Black label. Closer to $20 for the current vintages and maybe $30 for anything 10 to 20 years of age.

Generally expect 20 years or more form a Black Label.
Totally agree, would only pay $20 for current vintage and have paid $30 in the past for the 2008, 2010, 2013, 2014 and 2015 vintages. The 2003 purchase is more of a novelty for me - not something I would typically do, but keen to try a wine ~20 years old. I'm normally drinking in the 5-10 year range.
 
Anyone heard the "Cheers Collective Co."? Seems some of their back vintage wines are quite cheap. The Grant Burge Meshach is only $87 for vintage 1995. Is this company trustworthy?
