Tasting Note - Roy Kidman Cabernet Sauvignon 2004 (Recommended)

This is text book Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon as far as I am concerned. Whilst trying to assess the appearance ( a dense purple red) I was struck by the unmistakable menthol / eucalypt nose with a clean, minty, dark berry lift. The palate is smooth with pure black cherry and black current fruit, some well integrated charred cedar and an overal depth and elegance which is hard to fault. This wine no doubt comes with a price tag but I would certainly recommend it if it can retail for under $40.
