Cherry/berry flavours with hints of cola and woodsy spice. It's easygoing in general, though there's a darkness to both the fruit and the spice, which makes it feel deeper and more substantial than its (light to mid) weight would suggest. It's a good drink. Points: 90/100
Dangerously smooth, this takes pizza and pasta night to another level. Throw me a burger to match though, but a ragu will be just fine. A fabulous Tempranillo from El Desperado that oozes value at 20 bucks. Scents of cedar and caramel skip from the glass with a flood of blueberries and plums filling the mouth. Fine spices are sprinkled throughout, and suddenly, I'm pouring another glass. Wonderfully persistent with a drying finish, the moreishness keeps calling you back - and it would be rude to not oblige. Points: 93/100
The fruit comes from Langhorne Creek and the Adelaide Hills so there’s weight and textural richness and a vibrant cool climate lift especially on the nose. This is a wine that screams: drink me. Lush plum and cherry with a savoury finish. It’s medium bodied with a beautifully seamless and quite velvety mouthfeel. I want to drink this. Points: 94/100
