In some ways it''s effortless and easy-going " Claret-like " but it''s all class through the finish. This is a good look for Bowen cabernet. Seamless, finely tannic, full of sweet redcurrant-like fruit and kissed by cedary, smoky, clovey oak. It''s medium-weight and quite perfectly pitched.

Combines ripeness and composure with aplomb. Easy as you like. Redcurrant, dark cherry and cassis married to cedary, clovey oak. It's seamless and balanced and stitched with fine threads of tannin. Beautifully medium-bodied. Just when you think it's over, it lingers some more.
