A delicious Cabernet for under $20. Has notes of plum, Cassis, sage, tobacco and black licorice. — 3 years ago
V15. Pretty good! Fragrant eucalyptus, spearmint and cedar nose. Rich, blackberry fruit. Round, black pepper, and mocha finish. Good food or entertaining wine. — 4 years ago
2019 vintage. Very lean and stemmy side of Cabernet Franc, but without overt greenness. Red currant, red plum, lingonberry, violet, tarragon, Thai basil. Medium-minus body, good acidity for a warm-weather red. We're in the home stretch, fellow retail folk! — 4 months ago
This is Helios Penley Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, from Coonwarra, AUSTRALIA. Really good stuff, almost Rutherford-linke in its dusty tannic goodness. I actually picked this up at a specialty shop in London, but ended up packing it back to the US and cellaring it until now. I suppose this bottle has thereby circled the globe! — 3 years ago

Okay but in a good light way. Super good not a typical heavy cab sav — 10 months ago
So smooth and delicious. Bold and strong that would stand up to stronger food flavours. — 3 years ago
Plenty of dark fruit and vitality here. Verve still present at 12 years old. Medium plus finish and finessed — 4 years ago
