Natalie's Score: 90/100

A cool minty hallway of aromas interwoven with fleshy blackberry notes. From the Terra Rossa soils of Coonawarra, this 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon is very approachable. Sister's Run, Old Testament is a soft-tannin, juicy and savoury Cabernet Sauvignon -- a real crowd pleaser with rich blackberry and plums on the palate, spicy on the finish. Also approachable price wise. Pair with grilled steak.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: pizza topped with steak strips, rib steak, slow-braised brisket.

Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Well balanced, juicy, ripe red and blackberry, savoury and a touch of mint on the palate. Elegant medium tannins, medium acidity. Pairs well with gourmet burgers, or Tex-mex beef fajitas. Tasted 2015 vintage in Feb 2018 decanted 2h. 89 points
Rich and inviting with savoury, juicy aromas and flavours of fleshy blackberry and plums. Some cassis and dark spices on the finish. Love the balance. - Community Wine Reviews

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.
