Rymill Cabernet Sauvignon The Yearling

Aromatic, black currant, jalapeño pepper, clay and dark earth nose. Flavourful and well-balanced palate; good, ripe, dark finish. A delightful surprise, the best Coonawarra I have had in a long while...at any price. 4/5

Coonawarra Roadshow (Ivy, George Street, Sydney) : slightly farty black berry over currant fruit with oddly confected notes as well. In the mouth it's juicy and tangy with drying tannins but the fruit is pretty muted and doesn't carry at all. Nah
