Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Region/G.I.: Limestone Coast, Coonawarra
Vintage: 2008Colour: Dark purple
Alcohol: 14.5%
Bouquet: Lush, dense blackcurrant freshly crushed and a hint of tar
Flavour: Excellent length with very good, mild but grainy tannin keeping this all together and extending the experience. The fruit up front is not as intense as the nose would suggest and the overall flavour profile is straightforward but well done.
Points: 85 (3+7+11+7+7+50)
Notes: For a mid week quaffer, bought on sale at $10.50 ~ 180Kc, this is hard to beat. Unpretentious but a solid performance.
