Majella
Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon
Everything in the right order but not really inspiring. Really nice but lacking a cutting edge. Hard to put my finger on it, but when it hit the palate... it didn't sing.

Apr 24th, 2021Minty, green bell peppers, leaf, high acids, robust tannins; very drinkable today (with a lamb casserole) and likely to improve in cellar.

Apr 30th, 2019The 2000' is going strong. Another surprise for me. Really quite nice. Perfectly rounded edges.

Inte fullt så extraherad som jag väntade mig. Druvtypisk karaktär med fina gröna toner som spelar i bakgrunden. Mörka bär, mynta och lite cigarill.

Jul 7th, 2020Not a great concentration of flavors here, but distant hints of all kinds of things... Red and black fruit, some green veg, and very soft tannins holding it together... This wine doesn't need to star, but I think it would make great and interesting company with simple meat dishes.
