  • 2012 Terra Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon - 90 PTS - IWC

    tanzer iwc 90 pts"Brilliant ruby. Fresh cherry and cassis on the nose, with smoky mineral, oak spice and floral qualities adding complexity. Supple red and dark berry flavors provide very good palate coverage and show an energetic character thanks to juicy acidity. This suave, approachable cabernet finishes with very good thrust and persistent sweetness."

    wine enthusiast 91 ptsA terrific value if you can find it (alas, only 150 cases were imported), this is full bodied and richly textured, marrying hints of peppery spice with grilled lavender and rosemary that perfectly season the beach cherry and mocha flavors. It's stout, tannic and mouth coating on the finish, ideal for matching with roasts or steaks. Drink 2018–2025."

    wa90"Mint, chocolate and cassis play easily on the nose of the 2016 Terra Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon. A blend of several vineyards, including a bit from Eden Valley, its medium to full-bodied yet shows the variety's hallmark restraint and fine tannins on the finish. - Joe Czerwinski"

    wine enthusiast 88 pts"A heady combo of ripe fruit and soapy oak lead the way on the nose of this powerful Cab. Amidst plush blackberry and cassis are notes of mint, olives and slightly charred, mocha barrel characters. Grippy leathery tannins prop up the velvety fruit, balancing this youthful, dense wine. Drink with a decanter and plenty of protein at hand. - CHRISTINA PICKARD"

    vinous logo"Brilliant purple. Smoke-tinged black and blue fruits and a hint of licorice on the nose. Round and jammy on the palate, offering plush cherry, cassis and bitter chocolate flavors that are sharpened by a peppery nuance. Echoes the spice and cherry notes on a persistent finish that's framed by smooth, even tannins. - Josh Raynolds"

    tastings 2019 gold"Black violet color. Aromas and flavors of plum pudding, raspberry jam, cinnamon mocha latte, licorice, dark chocolate, and eucalyptus with a slightly chewy, vibrant, dryish medium-full body and a warming, subtle, medium-long finish that presents shades of key lime pie, candied jalepeno, and orange marmalade. An inky, powerful Barossa Valley Cabernet."
