  Last of 4 bottles, last one consumed over 8 years ago, and this was still going strong. really nice complexity with dark fruit accented by tobacco and cigar box, Bordeaux like flavors but with new world subtleties. Away bittersweet to have one of my few remaining Match bottles

  375ml bottle. We are neighbors of the owners and got this when they first started selling their wines. Its tremendous. Beautiful plummy fruit on the nose and excellent balance of blueberry and plums and prunes on the palate backed by nice wood notes and plenty of body. This scan keep going in the bottle for a while.

  A great bottle and glad to still have one more. Aging perfectly with notes of leather, cassis, and some spicy berry flavors. Great bottle and I hope to finish my last one by years end.

  Fruit is gone and the complexity is on its way out

  Unfortunately, this appears to be my last bottle. Through the years, this has had incredible QPR and it still does.
  
  Fruit is fading a touch and I did not detect much olive as I've noted in the past but it is still so harmonious with elegant leather aromas showing themselves front and center.
  
  We had a '13 Schrader RBS alongside and I found the Match so much more enjoyable. And dare I say I don't see the Schrader eclipsing the Match ever.
