  A few years in the cellar has done this no harm - a nice, inexpensive example of this style from Margaret River

  Funny bottle variation from the one tasted just a month ago. The color was completely brown, much older than the other bottle. The nose was much more complex, obsviouly the further bottle aging gave it more terciary aromas of resin and a very typical new world caracter. Although a little more enjoying than the other bottle I will not change the rating.

  Very nice cabernet, had it with grilled "picanha" covered with brazilian sauce (cooked olive oil with white wine, red wine-same one of course, rosemary, garlic and little red pepper).Great pairing. Dark rubi. Plums, little leather and slight hint of cassis on the nose. Balanced but not superb, finish could be much longer. Anyway, was very pleasant and should be drank sooner than latter. Not enough tannins for a longer lasting.
