Exquisite Cabernet produced by a recent winner of the James Halliday Winemaker of the Year. Seriously good wine and at a great price. You wont be dissapointed.

Blood plum, blackcurrant, cold drip coffee and ironstone. Densely flavoured through the mid palate - full of plush black fruits, leather and spice. With all the depth and broodiness mentioned, don’t be fooled into thinking it’s a heavy beast of a wine – there’s a brightness of fruit adding freshness and a kick of vibrancy here. Tannins are powdery and fine, wound tightly amongst the ripe cassis core of fruit that drives the palate.

Shanteh Wale - Halliday's Wine Companion
There is a forest of fruits, exotic spice, kirsch, blood plums and bilberries. But the spices draw you in and keep your palate captivated. Star anise, black mustard seed and nigella. Charred ancho chillies and a hint of yeast extract. It's laden with interest and the pillars of structure to age like a dream. Acidity is ethereal, so fine, and maintains the flavour right to the long final tunes. Some burdock root and mace, too. Truly a unique and fascinating wine.

"I was pleasantly surprised by this Mystery wine purchase and have yet to taste it. Previous vintages have been very good, and as a Cab Sav, I would expect some cellaring to be very beneficial. Time will tell!"
