Natalie's Score: 90/100

Loaded with fruit, this full-bodied red wine over-delivers on its price. Some cedar, spice and more dark fruit on the finish. Try it with hamburgers.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: grilled rib eye steak with green salad, rustic stew with herb dumplings, beef bourguignon.

Reviews and Ratings

This Australian red wine is named in honour of the Arthurian legend, which has it that the famous Excalibur sword was waiting under the Avalon tree to be pulled from a stone by Arthur, the future king of England. This Cabernet also has some Tempranillo in the blend. - Community Wine Review

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
