Sipping Fine Wine
A multi region blend, fruit from Barossa, McLaren Vale, Padthaway, Coonawarra and Wrattonbully vineyards, aged 12 months in both French and American oak. Deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits herb and spice. On the palate black cherry and blackberry with notes of cacao, espresso and herb pepper. Vivid acidity, ripe fine tannins, long finish ending with vanilla oak and spice, very nice!

Gorgeous bit of florals straight off the bat with lovely ripe dark fruits. Oak so well inter-grated and greenness nowhere to be seen. Tannins are ripe shapely with length pretty solid.

Dark ruby hue. Aromas of bell pepper, black cherry, blackcurrant, licorice, oak, and tobacco. Full-bodied, with full tannins and high acidity. Lengthy finish.

Aromatically high in minerality, pallate confirms nose and high tannins. Medium+ acid. Medium+ alcohol.

Following the Cuttings... Less jammy fruit, but more regal. Pronounced peppermint in the background. Like the previous cab, blue-black fruits.on the nose and palate. Some spices definitely including clove. What's different is that the tannins are still bold (yes it's 2 years younger) but years equal, this will outlast. Both great wines but this gets the plus mark tonight. 93+ points
