A favourite of mine, featuring lots of plum, blackberry, black raspberry, dried herb, spice and a hit of eucalyptus on the finish. 91 Points.
Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Lots of cassis and ripe strawberry on the nose with slight eucalyptus. Cassis, dried herbs, mint and eucalyptus on the palate.
Enjoy with seared steak.

Sharon Lécuyer rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Aromas of cedar, eucalyptus and a hint of smoke. Similar flavours on the palette as well as dried herb. This full bodied wine goes down so smooth (almost too smooth!).

Pairs well with steak or a divorce ;-)

Andrea Shapiro rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Margaret River Aussie Cabernet Sauvignon from Ringbolt. Medium ruby coloured with a big, fresh bouquet featuring red cherry, blackcurrants, vanilla bean, dark plum, blackberries, sweet smoke, dark chocolate and purple peony perfume. A hint of earthy heartiness also showing. Flavours are equally as fresh with plums, prunes, stewed strawberries, and a pinch of baking spice. Acidity is M+, as are the tannins. This is bone dry (2g/L) but has a lean juicy Medium body and finish. Well integrated, a great value. Paired awesomely with pork shoulder roast. 89 points
