Evans & Tate Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon, 2005


Cabernets from Australia's Margaret River have always reminded me of good Bourgeois cru reds from Bordeaux, and this 2005 Evans & Tate Cab is a good example.

Medium deep red, surprisingly similar to the beet root slices in a plate beside it on the table.  Mulberries, red and black currants, cassis, chocolate. A good level of acidity. Not a blockbuster. Lovely finish featuring ripe, well defined fruit.
