Brought this to a social tasting event with lots of other $10-$20 down under reds and whites. Was quite pleased with its "old world" style which showed more terroir and complexity than the jammy fruity examples that surrounded it. This would be a delightful daily addition.

Crimson-purple; blackberries, smoked meat, wet stones; berry/cherry, slightly spicy, minerally, medium body, youthful acidity, slightly bitter tannins, decent finish. Intriguing nose and stoney minerality but slightly green with youthful acidity and tannins. Unmemorable.

Warm nose of plum, eucalyptus and spice. Medium bodied with a lot of dark fruit, but not overly jammy. Smooth tannins lead to a peppery finish. The acidity is pretty high (retail $14.99)
