95 points - Leafy Cabernet nose, with nori in the mix. Ferrous. On the palate fine tar and tannins. Coaldust and mint. On the finish the coaldusty tannins meld into bitter fernet herbs. Superbly structured with acidity, freshness and the tannins to go the long haul. Complexity will build.

92 points - Slightly vegetal notes. Earthy, pooey, some old fashioned, furniture aromas. Medium bodied with deep set blueberry notes. Tannins finely gritty.

2010 Yalumba The Menzies Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon

2017-09-27T13:44:13Z

89 points - Dark purple red. Quite a animalic nose, ripe, almost over cooked prune notes. Dried prune, quite stalky and oaked style. Tannins already integrated and quite pleasantly powdery. Lots of toasted oak character. Long if a little dirty tasting.

94 points - Lovely cassis nose. Bread. Great intensity. Tobacco. The wine of the night for me. Drinking well now.

94 points - Black purple red. Some bright cassis aromas. Plush and soft palate with good coverage. Charming, good fruit sweetness. Some chat with the apparent tannins, a hint of that tobacco leaf too. Some complexity.
