2004 tasting note:

2004 was a classic Barossa vintage. It fell right in the middle of a drought so yields were below average in the Sandscrub vineyard providing great intensity and excellent tannin structure. The fruit was well balanced with the acidity holding well right up to it’s slightly later than usual harvest on the 18th March. The 2004 has taken the full four years in bottle to come together and the complexity is something I am very pleased with. I expect it to age gracefully for at least another twenty years.
