  • NobleRottersSydney - non-Oz cabernet (Alio's, Surry Hills): [cork, 14.5%, A$43] {Steven - Guest} A real contrast after the Bordeaux; ripe, glossy, modern cabernet, all currants and dark chocolate and expensive french oak. A big, bold palate, full-bodied, with plenty of graphite-like oak, medium powdery tannins and pretty low acidity. These all combine to give it a slightly syrupy texture; it’s a style with a fairly narrow drinking window between the fruit settling down a bit and the structure collapsing. Probably better in the shorter term (within 5 years); this is still a pretty impressive and flavourful wine that looks very good for the price.

  • Argentinian cabernet is very dependable (I like it better than their malbec) and Terrazas is a dependable producer (despite its seeming ubiquity); nice blackberry and coffee aromas with a lusher than expected mouthfeel showing some caramel cream and berry fruit.
