Draws you in from the get go, such attractive fresh, perfumed nose of blue fruits, plum, tarragon, pastry, white pepper, aniseed & Vietnamese mint. If the length wasn't so dismal this would be one of the best value wines going around.

Mar 27th, 2016Pretty nose of blue fruits, white pepper, liquorice all sorts, red plum and violets. Medium bodied and soundly balanced, short finish but good going for the bucks.

This is not the Yakka Jack but just known as The Red, their entry level bistro/pub red blend of Franc, Malbec, Sangiovese and Shiraz. Good pepperiness, dry tannins good with a variety of foods. Drank a bit above its price point at $20. Tasted the full range at the winery. Highlights were the Wally White (Oaked Semillon), a 100% Malbec and their flagship The Investigator, 100% Cab Franc which was excellent. Love the Lurton Family philosophy in wine making technique here on KI as explained by manager, Yale. 16.5+ for The Red.
