December 10, 2020 - Dark purple in color. Notes of blackberry, cassis, and violet. Dry, med body, smooth tannins, med acidity. This wine was way to jammy for my liking. Drank over a couple of days hoping it would mellow. Do not see any comparisons to old world wines, love the elegance of elderton Shiraz’s but not this one.

June 30, 2018 - Bottle air for 1.5 hrs
Appearance: clear, deep ruby, with legs and petillance
On nose : medium+ intensity, black fruit : black berries, black currant, eucalyptus, pencil box, vanilla oak, some black pepper spiciness. Very complex and pleasant.
On palate : dry, medium+ acidity, medium+ flavour intensity, medium and round tannin, black fruit on front palate, but a bit hallow on mid palate, medium+ alcohol with bitterness and savoury aftertaste. Medium+ body with medium+ finishing.
This is a good wine anyway, the wine started to decline and flattened after 3 hrs. As a Barrosa Cabernet Sauvignon, it gives you great enjoyment and it is quite similar to St Julien but not as elegant as the Bordeaux. Still I enjoy with pleasant and drink comfortably. -

March 15, 2016 - Broadbent Vinho Verde, Port, Madeira: Pure blackcurrant juice! Slight menthol/eucalyptus (pyrazines) and green olive. No overt oak influence. Black and blue fruit. Pure varietal cab!
Medium plus body, elevated alcohol 14% (actually 14.5), elevated acid and medium tannins.
Very nice!

April 18, 2015 - Pleasant bouquet of black berries, beautiful ruby color. Powerful and full-bodied yet well balanced. With a long albeit not that complex finish. Pairs perfectly with steak and spiced sauce. Will buy again"
