"Tasted this for the book in January but it’s been released for a while now. Ummed and ahhd on the score a little bit, but came out in its favour (with the higher score) in the end. Nice packaging.
Has a bit of gum leaf and green bean but it’s attractive (depending on your view of things) – then chocolate, violet and berries. There’s plenty of flavour, the tannins appropriate, firm but balanced, and the length is solid. Has lots of appeal and regional charm. Perhaps it could do with a little more oomph and length, although maybe that’s not its style. Drinks well, and if you like a leafy, fragrant style of Cabernet, then this will hit the spot. Good value too.
