Plum or black berry, dark choc, mild spice on the nose. Good body and tannin structure. Some peppery after taste. (Plum, dark berries, fruitcake and cigar box; fine grained tannins) — 12 years ago

Awesome round easy blend. Great with salmon and pork. And as most reds are, good with dark choc — 12 years ago
The 1998 is from a great vintage. An iconic Cabernet Shiraz done so well in Australia. This shows minty Cab nuances from Coonawarra plus a choc/leafy nose with nice sweet Shiraz (McLaren Vale?) to round it out. A perfect match with Cape Grim rump. 18.5. — 10 years ago

Very well balamced, delicious array of scents on the nose; Licorice, tar, anise, dark choc, mascerano and black cherries, raspberry, blackcurrant, clove, dried herbs, florals. Juicy, well structured palate. Medium acid, medium tannin, medium (+) finish. Noticeable blackberry and white pepper palate. Delicious — 10 years ago
