  Nicely balanced QPR within the drinking window now but can last another 5 years easy.

  Good QPR. Nice overseas cab sav, with lots of power and sun. But not muh depth in the nose or on the tongue.

  A little of the over extracted Aussie spirit, but s smoothed out over dinner.
  
  Strong fruit, smooth tannins. Sweet cherry, vanilla, blueberry.
  Had with a flavorful flank steak with wine reduction and cold orzo salad. Combo worked well.
  
  Better than expected.

  This wine is a great example of the quality Cabernet that The Coonawarra in Oz is known for. Unlike the often jammy Barossa Shiraz's, this is a crisp tart berry Cabernet, smooth, with pepper, cherry and hints of mint. Certainly will cellar nicely for a number of years.
