As tomorrow is International Cabernet Sauvignon day let's start celebrating early.

This is a nice Cabernet Sauvignon from Australia.

Showing black fruits with earth, vegetables, spices, tobacco leaf and peppercorn.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.

Still young and would be better in a couple of years.

Still out of balance and a little bitter at the ending. A good food wine to pair with BBQ Meats.

A good everyday wine. Needs an hour to open up properly.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

87 Points.

$19.

It is Friday again and I feel like trying something different. I have stayed away from Aussie wines because of bad experiences once had. I picked this Cabernet up the other day to give it another shot. You know, never say never. So I am not. The nose on this wine is of good dark fruit, blackberry, black plum, vanilla, caramelized flan and smokey oak. On the palate I get a medium mouth feel, blackberries, blueberries, and there is a slight sweetness on the front end. There are medium tannins and medium finish. If you are all about a big robust cab, this is not for you. If you like a medium bodied with a good smooth mouth feel that drinks well now this is it. Not a bad bottle by any means. Oh and by the way this is a screw cap.

medium body, pleasant 'jammy' fruit flavor, drier finish. Pleasing deep red/violet in color.

Dull and muddy. Good aroma but the flavor doesn’t match. Worse the 2nd day.

Nice cherry bouquet. Very balanced and pleasant. Hold its taste for the whole barbecue dinner. Great value! 2010

What wine do you drink with a tornado, heavy rain and potential flash floods? An 07 Cab Sauv from Australia. Definite burnt toast, cherry and some spice on the nose. Definitely decant but still decent without.
