Gentlemen, thank you for pointing us in the right direction. Excellent value. Quite rewarding; it's definitely zesty and the chocolate is there. Who could ask for more, these days at the LCBO, in a $15 wine.

This was a tasty blend that can be enjoyed by itself or with an array of foods. Nice BBQ wine.

A ripe, smooth South African wine with depth and length. A shade too much oak for my personal taste but it is in balance with the fruit. Very fine for $15. Nice rec by JS and DL. How can they produce such a good wine and ship it half way around the world and it still retails for $15 is amazing. Tasted Feb 2015.

Blend of 37% Shiraz, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 4% Petit Verdot and 4% Malbec. Medium+ aromatic intensity with complex herbal, wild dark/red berry fruit, currant, cassis and elegant oak aromas. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with ripe, supple tannins and flavours of red/black fruits, black cherry, black currant, vanilla and chocolate. Good, balanced acids and a medium-long finish. Tasted May/2015. Score: 88+ pts
