Brand's Laira Blockers Cabernet Sauvignon

... a rolling ball of Coonawarra goodness delivered to all corners of the mouth. Well managed tannin. Round, plump and satisfying with ample length.

Lashings of black and blue fruits, a hint of mint, cedar and vanillin oak in a blanket of soft, fine, velvety tannins.

Blackberry, malty oak, mint/licorice it's a big rich brooding mouthful of dark fruit backed with toasty oak, plenty of rugged tannin, a little alcohol warmth and a good finish. Some tobacco and dried herb flavours in there too. It's large scale, chewy, raw and unsubtle brutish even, but it's not a bad wine at all. With a big steak now or give it more time in bottle.

Recent vintages of Brand's Coonawarra reds have been riper and fuller than those of the past. Blockers '08 has a glass-staining, deep colour with a nose of crushed berries, currants, Siena cake and cedar. In the mouth it has excellent balance and good concentration without showing undue alcohol, finishing long with ripe tannins.

Classic Coonawarra Cabernet. Lashings of mint, cedar, chocolate and cassis. A big rich wine with fine tannins and tremendous length. Drink now or cellar confidently for five years plus.
