- Last tasted: 2000, Kevin Glastonbury, Winemaker
- Notes: The Octavius 1998 is dense red in colour with a complex nose of spice, pepper, fruitcake, coffee bean, violet and vanillin toasty oak. The palate is truly intense with concentrated layers of plum, licorice and black olives balanced by fine-grained tannins. Awards & Accolades: 2 Trophies, 8 Gold
