The Cabernet knocks the Shiraz out of the park. Good, easy drinking but nothing special.

Rich, flavorful Cab with fantastic bold tannins well integrated with the dark red fruit of cranberry, blueberry, currant. Layers of complexity readily opened up and a grippy finish. We picked it up at cellar doors when we were traveling across SE SA a few years back and visited Coonawarra. Had to drink it today to celebrate their most severe but shortest 3 day lock down in this pandemic history.

Vibrant dark red fruit, picking up cranberry soaked in oak and a bit edgy. Single note but full bodied.
