Pale ruby in the glass with a rustic nose of cherry, forest floor, cinnamon, eucalyptus and toasted cedar. Supple tannins with bright acidity and expressive notes of cherry, raspberry, sautéed mushrooms and clove.

PnP, with interesting notes of barnyard and raspberry up front on the nose. There's an elegance on the palate, with the soft mouthfeel supported by correct acidity and notes of cherry cola, raspberry, black pepper, and black tea. Tannins emerge with more air time, activating light tarry notes that linger on the medium finish. One of the nicer bottles of NZ SB I've had in recent years.

Medium body, Moderate cherry, some earthiness. Not enough going on to make this a regular buy.

Balanced comes to mind. Sweet berries, earthy mushrooms and hint of tobacco. Solid QPR at Costco.
