  Fourth of four bottles. Some sediment left in the bottle but colour and tannins still going strong. Drink or hold.

  Screwcap, 14.5% alc. Crimson hue to the deep red colour.
  
  Nose shows good Margaret River Cabernet typicity with gravel, bay, menthol, and blackcurrant. A coffee oak element is also apparent.
  
  The savoury palate is pretty direct and linear, with dusty tannins and reasonable length.
  
  Opinion: Solid, and reliable cabernet, that will never wow, but should drink well over the next 6-8 years. Much better than the 2004, from memory.
