Springs Road Cabernet/Shiraz 2018

You can see each of these varieties solo from the same vineyard, then this blending into a harmonious duet adds extra appeal; still full bodied, yet a more gentle, rounded style results. The 75% cabernet and mint note invite you in. The palate is complete, with the aromatics and plummy, spicy shiraz fruit, and while there’s a decent tannin feel, there’s a medium-bodied carry to the finish that encourages the next glass. Drink by: 2030. Score – 94. (Tony Love, winecompanion.com.au, Aug. 13, 2021)
