Tasting Notes
Medium to full red-purple; a paradigm of everything Cabernet Sauvignon should be: the fragrant cassis/redcurrant fruit and perfect oak integration of the bouquet is followed by an intensely flavoured yet elegant wine on a very long palate flooded with cassis and redcurrant fruit, and crowned with fine tannins on the finish.
-by James Halliday
Simply awesome for its depth of concentrated cassis fruit and barely
hidden depth of tannin, this Schwarzenegger of a Barossa cabernet is
built not only for strength but endurance. Its ripe, heady dark fruit is
given equally assertive smoky vanilla and cedary oak, fashioned on a
keel of big, balanced, ripe extract. Needs all the time you can give it. Drink 2008-2016+
