2016-2019
March 2024.....pretty sure this is the only one I have, probably gave one away. Was worried it might be bad but on the contrary quite nice. Certainly aged and smooth, but rich with dense fruit flavours, quite lovely. Had with leftover moussaka. (92)

Grant Burge Corryton Park Cabernet Sauvignon 2009, Barossa
South Australia, Australia$32.95
2018-22
Feb/18....1st of 2....rich & flavourful but a touch hot on the finish. Appears fully evolved, decent amount of sediment. Had with a homemade hamburger, nice but this wine needs a steak. Try last one 2019/20.
June 2020.....appears to have completely mellowed out, quite enjoyed, didn't sense the 'burn' from 2 years previous.

2023+24+25+26/27 + gift (Gerrits)
summer 2023....Crystal drank, and she did not like it. I'm sure it was that familiar SA aroma that isn't for everyone.
Feb 2024....had with Nora, with turkey chilli that we brought home from Sun Peaks made by Dawn). We both thoroughly enjoyed it. Tastes better with a little aeration, even 15 minutes but one hour better.
