Bright and juicy, with a distinct blueberry note adding charm to the savory, meaty, tarry notes as it all lingers beautifully against refined tannins. Drink now through 2013. 125 cases made.??–HS??Region: Australia / McLaren Vale Select to Add

(this wine is known as The Angelus in Australia) Saturated ruby-red. Strikingly complex, sexy bouquet of red- and blackcurrant, rose, cigar box and pungent herbs: textbook cabernet. Smooth red and dark berry flavors are braced by dusty tannins and gain a subtle chocolate quality with air. Licorice and sweet herbs linger on the sappy finish, which features silky tannins and good mineral bite. I wouldn't hesitate to age this for another ten years.

An intense, well-made Cabernet, with typical mint and cassis aromas and bold flavors of black currants and vanilla. Big enough to be mouthfilling without being overbearing, it lacks a bit of nuance, but would be satifying placed alongside a thick, juicy steak.
