This Cabernet delivers quite a show – as the label would suggest! With instant lifted game and spice character, the aromatics quickly catch your attention, and then follow up with layers of dark chocolate, mint and metwurst. The flavours are supple, with a full palate texture and sufficient length to leave you cheering for an encore.

Prices are recommended retail in Australian dollars.
Scores are based on the 100 point scale as follows:
99-100 – The epitome of the style | 96-98 – Exceptional in every way | 94-95 – Excellent character | 90-93 – Very good quality, style and balance | 88-89 – Sound varietal character | 85-87 – Plain and dull |80-84 – Lacking balance and integrity | 75-79 – You’d have to be desperate.
We taste 15 000 wines every year and we only recommend the very best for the price.
