Jennifer Havers rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Very flavourful! Aromas of fresh raspberries, cherry and currant, along with hints of mocha and woodsmoke. Full bodied on the palate with balancing acidity, light tannins, and ripe, fresh berry notes, with the mocha and smoke carrying through on the finish. Enjoy with grilled italian sausages.
Daniel O'Keefe rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Made using a combination of grapes from the Angove Nanya Organic Vineyard near Paringa Township and other certified organic vineyards. Intense shade of dark red, this Cab leads with ripe blackcurrant and black cherry aromas followed up with plum and cocoa. Ripe and full-bodied while maintaining acidity and freshness, expect flavours of cassis with hints of smoke and cocoa between moderate and round tannins. Top value Cab Sauv that will match lamb chops, burgers, and charcuterie quite nicely.

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.
