Smooth, no longer sour at this date. Average complexity but tasty and good length. Well like by all at dinner (crowd pleasing)

Slightly hot, dried herb nose with a few strands of tobacco, with cedar pleasantly on the tongue and sourness on the length, yet a nice chalky mineral finish reminiscent of the west bank. Did I mention complex,? Nice job.

This deeply coloured Australian cabernet displays classic violet and black fruit aromas that lean toward black currant jam. Beneath the fruit, there is a slight medicinal note that is not unappealing, but hard to place. The oak treatment comes through as sweet spice and vanilla in this full bodied, well-structured and wonderfully smooth wine.
