2023 Reginald Shiraz Cabernet - NEW VINTAGE
A classic Australian wine style championed in the late 1800s. Today it is the great Australian red, to the point that leading international wine writers and commentators, Tyson Stelzer and Matthew Jukes, have labelled Shiraz Cabernet blends as “The blend that defines Australia: Mouth filling wine style; soft, fleshy but firm with an explosion of fruit and flavour by blending Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon”.
94 points Winepilot Ken Gargett - A Barossa version of the great Aussie wine blend, which will only add to the reputation. Superb wine, stunning value. The colour here is a deep maroon. The nose is enticing in every possible way – coffee beans, chocolate, black cherries, warm earth, a flick of nuts, dried herbs and black fruits. A touch of mulberries as well. The wine has good length of flavour with a lingering finish and supple, sleek tannins. The palate sees a hint of tobacco leaves emerge. Love it. Expect this to drink beautifully for a decade.
92 points The Real Review Huon Hooke - Medium deep red-purple colour with aromas of red and darker fruits, plum and a trace of cassis. In the mouth it's elegant, tensioned and long with fine but persistent tannins running the full length of the palate. Attractive cassis/berry flavours run throughout. Really good value.
