CROWDPLEASER

"This is gorgeously composed and styled, showing cassis, cigar box, smoked game, clove and floral aromas, followed by a concentrated palate delivering plush texture and loads of fine tannins. Structured and sturdy yet graceful and harmonious with a persistent delectable finish. At its best: now to 2038. 95." Wine Orbit

"This [Cabernet] from the Barossa, is absolutely delicious. It provides more grist to the mill of those convinced that Cabernet in the right vintage in the Barossa can thrill. A crowd pleaser and a cracking wine. Love it. Dark maroon hue, the wine is bursting with flavour. Chocolate, beef stock, roast meats, black fruits, and bay leaves. The gorgeously structured palate offers a sweet core of dark chocolate. There are soft and satiny tannins. There is a lusciousness to this wine making it generous and approachable. Excellent length. This should offer pleasure for the next six to ten years. And compelling evidence that you do not have to break the bank to drink very well. 94." Ken Gargett, Wine Pilot

Colour: Deep opaque maroon.

Nose: The nose displays generous notes of black fruits, herbs, and dark chocolate.

    'cigar box, smoked game, clove and floral aromas'

    So this wine tastes like smoked rabbit or duck, an old cigar box, cloves and flowers?
    Perhaps you need a finer palate or an active imagination to enjoy it.

      @King Tightarse Welcome to the world of wine writing… :-) RD.

      • Can you or someone provide something for the general punter?

        That's the audience here, would love someone to speak our language without so much filler fluff.

        i.e Medium or full bodied? Pairs well with…

        • Medium to full bodied. Pairs with a glass or straw if glasses are not available. Slam a leg of lamb in the Weber, roast spuds and a salad and you are well on the way to a cracking afternoon. Cheers! RD :-)

          • @RD ADL: Loved lakeside Pinot, thanks helps me pull the trigger when I get home

  • This is my go to wine and well worth it for the price. I have a dozen left on the shelf but will look to get some more…

    • @gjk last ever 50 cases - no follow- up vintage :-)
