Bravo. A stunning Cabernet that feels so well put together. Soft but not flabby, generous but not overdone. Black fruit driven. So lovely to drink a wine this comfortable in its own skin.. — 11 years ago

Put this baby down for a decade. Bigger than Benhur but is it worth $700 AUD? I'll let you decide. — 12 years ago

Very tasty! As Lloyd put it... "It's a step above our wine in a box." :) — 13 years ago

In my mind a very elegant cab franc. More predictable but more fruit - almost gamy at times - but lots of herbs to pull it through. Put it in the cellar — 11 years ago

Great wine. Awesome value. Beautiful cherries, red fruit and toast in nose, smooth elegant body with more red fruit that carries. Not hard to put this back to your mouth! — 12 years ago

I've probably had more of this wine than any other all year and its unfortunately been inconsistent. Some have tasted corked, others I would put against the best Barberas out there. Then again, there's a reason I will come back to this bottle, because when it's good, it phenomenal for an under $20 Barbera d'Asti. This particular bottle was middle of the road good, not amazing compared to what else we've opened tonight. Definitely sweeter than what I remember, but not in a bad way. — 12 years ago

Now this is an obscure blend that really works - still a little young and tight but shows balance and subtle nuances of the multiple parts - tastes like it was put together by a pro. — 12 years ago
