  10/28/2018 - cos65 Likes this wine:

  Served blind, but very obvious with two recent tastings
  Dark ruby with a garnet rim
  Rich dense, slight bitter cherry syrup flavored
  Very ripe fruit, preserved under screwcap, tasting much younger.
  
  There seems to be a bit of bottle variation.

  Served blind
  Deep clear ruby
  Slightly smoky cherry nose
  Bone dry rich cherry flavors without being over ripe
  I’m continuing to believe that while screwcap wines may maintain better freshness, they don’t integrate as smoothly and have a slightly tinny finish.
  
  Having had this within the past month, I should have identified it more quickly.

  Fascinating stuff
  Deep clear ruby
  Smoky cherry nose
  Pure juicy dark cherry flavors with a slight candied sweet tart finish that didn’t detract.
  Mouth watering acidity with just a light dusting of tannin. In an absolutely sweet spot right now.
  I’m surprised at the age at how fresh this tastes

  - Garnet color - Very nice Aussie cab. Soft Tannins, nice fruit and subtle texture on the tongue. Lingers for some time. Love it's mellowness.

  Quality cab sav, smooth tannins, still lots of fruit and little signs of age. Holding together well, no rush to open.
