Yikes, this was tasty. Popped and poured into a decanter. Inky red-black, still fine-grained tannins adding a remarkable tactile mouthfeel. This followed two very fine Syrahs, one from Santa Cruz (Big Basin Mandala 2004) and another from OZ (Clarendon Hills Liandra), both excellent, but this high-octane Cab blew us away. I last tried this a couple of years ago, and thought it needed a couple of years for the tannins to integrate and the oak to reveal the fruit. What a difference!

Excellent food friendly wine for the price. Heavier than a Pinot grigio and less fruity than a Sauvignon blanc. A good way to surprise your wine friends with something affordable in the ABC category.

Full bodied with a deep garnet hue, but not totally opaque. Excellent texture and medium acidity, well integrated tannis. Well styled with cassis, black currant and dark berry fruit intense flavor but not overdone. Some toasty vanilla notes but not overoaked by any means. Hint of menthol and chocolate. Not far from being perfect. Highly recommended.

Light color. Smells of bright red fruit floral and a hint of bramble. Good acid on tasting but herbal tones and no depth. No mid palate. Only ok even considering the price point
