Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Lori Kilmartin reviewed this wine as follows:

Gift from Brenda for BBQ
Spice and blackberry jam. Good freshness. Very closed. Intense, round and finely tuned oak tannin palate. Acids/oaks a little bit bare at the moment. It is a great, young cellaring wine. Score: Blue-Gold Source: Sydney International Wine Competition
