  Very typical Cab at a modest price point. Dark, black fruits, hint of sweetness on the finish, although shortlived. Easy drinking, tannins not overpowering at all.
  
  Would look for more recent vintages for a winter midweek Cab when the fancy takes me on a wet Wednesday in November...

  Deep ruby colour, nose of mocha, blackberry and blackcurrant. The palate is smooth and rich with ripe black fruits and a hint of creamy sweetness and cedar spice.

  {screwcap, 14%} Ripely black but dusty and dry cabernet, new world style but restrained and savoury. Medium weight, patchy presence on the medium length palate. Still fairly young. Should gently mature into a pleasing but hardy profound red. Good wine for the $20 or so price these days.

  Appropriate colour. Nose took time to develop. Fairly ripe but a pleasant hint of mintiness. Not without structure but fully accessible. Good value.

  This is the Chinese label job that I assume is the same wine. Super settled and easy going. Herbs and blackberries. Hard not to like.
