Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:

Ripe Fruit and shaved chocolate develops in the glass, the finish is rich, layered and long. Even though technology has enabled us to produce wine on a larger scale, the art of wine making itself has remained very much the same. It is still a combination of soil, weather coupled with the skill of the individual winemaker which influences the outcome of each variety and vintage.

This is why we want you to meet the people behind our wines. The vinedressers series highlights their best wines.

This unique wine blends Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Lemberger (known as Blaufränkisch in Austria) and Cabernet Sauvignon. Medium-deep ruby colour. Aromas suggest plum, cherry, potpourri, sweet red peppers and smoke. Layered flavours on the medium-full-bodied palate, with good intensity, and finishing in a flourish of smoky red pepper.

Natalie who?
Yes, I'm a certified sommelier and was named the World's Best Wine Writer at the World Food Media Awards. Blah, blah, blah. What really matters is that I know which wines can increase your hedonistic happiness... a lot. Don't worry, spam doesn't pair well with wine!
