Reviews and Ratings

L.J. Palmer WSET 3 rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Deep ruby wine, dry, balanced, and medium plus body.Pronounced aroma of black currant, blackberry, black cherry, kirsch, chocolate, cocoa, and savoury herbs. Prounounced intensity palate featuring blackberry, black currant, tobacco, cedar, graphite, green bell pepper, and black cherry. very good on its own or with aged cheddar.

Trent Mayers rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

From Coonawarra in Australia, it is a splendid red not to mention a great value. It's uncommon to find a Cab below $20 that shows such true varietal character; this shows it remarkably well. Deeply coloured, it's reminiscent of black currant jam, blackberry, black cherry, vanilla, spice, and minty eucalyptus. Dry and deliciously full bodied for your summer BBQs headlining beef or pork. It would be equally at home with mushrooms sautéed with thyme.
