Mark Cochrane Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

A medium red Cabernet Sauvignon with a purple hue around the rim has aromas of strawberries, cedar, spice, tobacco and dark currants. The wine was has a medium to full bodied feel with flavours of berries, caramel and tobacco with a medium to long finish of berries on the palate. It pairs well with dishes like roast beef, steak or something as simple a lasagna. It's not heavy like some Cabernet's but has a richness to it that should be pleasing to most wine drinkers
Paula Moloney reviewed this wine as follows:

Excellent full body red 13.95
