Ausie Shiraz nose. Wouldn’t guess Cab in a blind taste by its nose of blueberry, mint and a hint of (only cab like thing about the nose) eucalyptus. Palette though, gives up the cab side of this wine. Solid core of dark fruits, forest floor and a finish of black cherry. Good finish with a touch of vanilla from some oak. Nicely done.

Dark purple color. Interesting, non-Cab like nose, dark fruits, some forest floor, a touch of mint. Palate was very smooth for a young Cab, decently integrated. Dark fruits, some chocolate, a hint of pencil lead. Good structure, long finish. Incredible QPR, but I find this to be common with the Margaret River wines that I manage to get my hands on.

That smells like Aussie but I am being told its a bit more lean for Aussie. Drinking well today. Fresh Cabernet fruit, delivering it up for $18 or so.
