May 13, 2019 - The reason why it took me over a month to publish this article is because I stopped here and couldn’t budge even if I had a gun to my head. How to start writing about an Australian Cab that’s so reminiscent of Bordeaux? It’s not as bad as vin ordinaire, but not as stunning as a member of the growth elite. Don’t get me wrong, this is sexy as hell for Australia’s standards, but a bit above meh for your average Bordeaux Joe. And this is as Bordeaux as it gets outside the region itself.
Black ruby with thick purple edges. Big and typical on the nose – ripe blackberry/raspberry, black pepper, capsicum and ash all covered in soya sauce, sausage juice, ginseng and leather. Wait, are we already on dinner? The acidity shines in the beginning, there’s a good chunk of ripeness to counter it and the tannins feel quite soft, contributing nicely to the overall texture. However, all this excitement somehow tends to evaporate towards the finish and leaves you wondering what the fuck just went down.
