August 31, 2014 - This is not exactly my kinda wine, I found the fruit a touch overripe and the tannins too soft and i like the freshness, but overall not much pleased with it. But the other guys on the dinner were quite happy and really liked it...

January 16, 2013 - Smells black - pepper, currant, berry. Afterscents of licorice and vanilla. Whoever decided to mix Cabernet and Shiraz is one crazy Aussie but sometimes it works. This is a big jammy fruitbomb with alcohol in check at 13.5%, loads of plum jam, ripe berries, and chocolate. Delicious wine and excellent value!
