Community Tasting Notes 2

    February 6, 2010 - dark ruby color, plenty of black forest fruit aroma, jammy taste of wooded black forest fruits, chewy, goes along well with meat.

    May 10, 2006 - Deep red in colour this wine exhibits very typical cabernet aromas of blackcurrant, earth and some eucalypt/menthol notes in the background. A very fruit forward wine with wonderful rich blackcurrant coming to the fore supported with some nice oak handling in the background. Finishes long and tight with fine, silky tannins. The only negative is that is also finishes with a bit of an acidic bite, but once it settles down with some bottle age this will be a real delight to drink. Another impressive cabernet from the Barossa and you cannot help think that the 2004 and 2005 vintages will mark the comeback of cabernet in this shiraz dominated region. A bargain for the price (AUS$23 CD) and will probably out-perform the wonderful 2004 release.
