Astralis 99?

Post by Alan Rath »

Any experience out there with 1999 Astralis? Never had any vintage of this wine. How does it typically compare with, say, Grange? Is it just a ridiculously overpriced marketing-hyped wine?

Thanks for any info,
Alan

Alan,
I would rate the A$tralis 99 as the most dissapointing wine I'd last yr. Elegant, no depth n uninspiring. Very similar weight/profile to the Hewitson's.
The only consolation is i don't hv to pay for the bt. :lol:

Rgds,
MC
