Welland Valley & Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2024
$30, 14.5% alcohol, screwcap, Barossa/Eden valleys.

This red wine from the Barossa and Eden valleys is both solid as a rock and smooth as silk. It tastes of ripe blackberries and plums with vanilla and cedarwood characters rolling over the top. You have to like the taste of oak, sure, but this wine is both soft and flavoursome and, as a result, it will keep a lot of red wine lovers happy. 91 points.
