December 11, 2008 - Brought this last month to a Christmas Party since we had 3 liters of it. Let's just say it's a good everyday drinker. Nothing special but pleasant to drink.

Anyway, no nose to speak of but plenty of dark fruit and spice to make for an easy drinking, fun wine. At $11 I would buy it again. Michael used it in the pasta red sauce and it added a nice zip. I would also say this is a wine that needs food, not one just for sipping. Was nice not to notice the alcohol which was a moderate 13.8% (IMO) given the current trend for Aussie wines to be 14+).
