95 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 2006
($70) Inky ruby. Powerful, deeply scented, brooding aromas of cassis, blueberry, kirsch, tobacco and spicecake. This offers unreal concentration and structure, with youthful, primal dark berry and cherry flavors that expand and deepen with air. Ridiculously sweet but focused on the very long finish, which shows impressive lift and poise for a wine with such flavor drama. Wow!

A Great Big Red from Down Under
01/28/2008
by Spearfisher
This is a full-bodied, rich, deep, dense, Aussie red. Cherry-colored, full throttle nose, perfect tanins that mellow quickly (no need to decant for an hour), balanced acidity, sugar, spice and oak with a long and perfect finish. Drink now! This is what Australian Cabs are all about. Very limitted - buy it when you find it!
