Vintage Cellar Review:
“90 pts International Wine Cellar July/August 2011 ‘...Smells like a $50 Napa cabernet. Lush, pliant and sweet, with a layered, chewy texture to the flavors of red and black sruits, bitter chocolate and spices. This is really packed with fruity but there’s a litheness to it as well...A fantastic value...’”

My Review:
This Australian Cabernet Sauvignon is a very pure red color (no purple tones mixed in). It has semi-thick legs. There is a very woody or cedar scent with a hint of red berries. The taste is filled with sweet berry and fruity flavors followed by an extremely woody aftertaste. It is a bit acidic and hot. Additionally, it has a slight tang or spice; a little kick to the flavor. I really haven’t ever tried any cabernets that I particularly care for, but with all things considered, this one was decent for a cabernet. I would recommend it to those who like cabernets or at least reds that are somewhat dry.

Pairings: I did
not try this wine with food. I am really
kind of weird and I only like cheese if it is melted. However, I feel like if I did like unmelted
cheese, it would be good with this wine.
It could also be good with steak or meatloaf (some kind of hearty
meal).
