Excellent, excellent WA cabernet dominant blend; shows Margaret River's dominance of Australian cabernets; shows tobacco and black fruits flavours; undoubtedly now dry with a tannin backbone rarely found in Oz cabernet; then juicy, taut acids too to show further longevity; drink til 2025; little colour dropoff — 10 years ago

Smooth, drinkable - would pair well with anything. Had with a wonderful Italian meal.

Ruby wine club notes: The Cavallotto family claims sole ownership of the beautiful Bricco Boschis cru in the Castiglione Falletto district (also home to Azelia), where they have been growing Nebbiolo since 1929 and bottling their own wine since 1948. These richly structured wines place emphasis on elegance and longevity, attributable to excellent vineyards in the Bricco Boschis and Vignolo crus and traditional long maturation periods in large Slovenian-oak casks. After meeting and tasting with Winemaker and owner Alfio Cavallotto, I was incredibly impressed with his wines and thought his Dolcetto was one of the best I had tasted all year. This wine offers the crunchy red fruits for which Dolcetto is known for, with an element of licorice, and sandalwood. This Impressive effort will pair with just about anything, but it is highly fashionable with pasta and grilled meats. — 11 years ago

Dried cherry, strawberry, persimmon and nice silky mouthfeel with good acidity. Tannins are pretty stout at the back end lending itself to definite longevity. — 11 years ago
