Falls effortlessly into the archetypal, warm-hearted Aussie Cab-Shiraz style. Sweet-fruited and bold in flavour, its generosity tantalises the tastebuds. There’s blackberry by the punnet, abundant spices, chocolate panforte, blackcurrant jam, dried fruits, star anise and so much more. Chocolatey-rich, like slicing into a brownie with an espresso on the side, it comes at you with a high delicious factor. Cabernet-driven tannins roll through in league with a gentle Cabernet leafiness and undergrowth. Made for the barbecue or that winter casserole.
