Everything I fear about an Aussie cab. My rating is admittedly hugely swayed by my own preferences but I wonder who would pay any money for what it is - jammy, fruity, almost incomprehensible so. Zero finesse - the word mindless comes to me overall even if I know that's absurdly unfair. It gets some level of point for being ready to drink and for now freeing up perfectly good storage space. Buy a $5 Shiraz. Same thing.

Full bodied, elegant, with medium-long aftertaste. It's also gorgeous on the nose with ripe red berries, oak and hints of leather. Excellent. Drink it now. 92+
