Nose: Dark berry fruit aromas lead, accompanied by pencil shavings, subtle eucalyptus notes and hints of dried herbs. Red floral tones add complexity to the bouquet.

Palate: The palate shows rich blackcurrant and blackberry fruit flavours upfront, balanced by medium varietal tannins that provide classical structure without being overblown. Dried herb nuances and red florals add layers, while the wine maintains good weight and body.

Finish: Supple tannins carry through to a satisfying finish with lingering dark fruit and savoury notes. The framework is classical Cabernet, offering plenty of character for the price.

Pair this wine with char-grilled ribeye steak, braised lamb shanks, or aged cheddar cheese. The wine’s structure and fruit weight make it an excellent companion for full-bodied meat dishes.

Serve at cellar temperature, around 16-18°C, in standard Bordeaux-style wine glasses to appreciate the aromatic complexity. Allow the wine to breathe for 30 minutes before serving to open up the bouquet.

A reliable everyday Cabernet for home cellars and dinner tables, this wine punches well above its price point for those seeking quality Australian red wine without the premium tag.
