We poured each other a glass and thought initially there was a hint of cork taint. This initial suggestion disappeared with time but the wine’s flavour did not improve. We struggled through one glass and tipped the rest down the sink.

Complex nose of concentrated and ripe blue berries, violet, leather, Chinese spices and hints of tangerine peels. Quite interesting nose for a Cabernet Shiraz Blend. Palate is fresh and lively with spicy blue fruits dancing around. Less rich and fat than the nose suggests. Some dark chocolate and minerals in the mid-palate and finish which could be deeper and longer. Still need more time to sort out the balance and structure.

Dark, almost black, with cedar and bramble aromas. Long, sinewy tannins balance soft layers of dark berries and soft acidity
