Château Tanunda Barossa "Matthews Road" 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon, $7.64-$19.99, 87 points, poured core black grading purple/red toward the clear wine ring and lightly draped glass bowl.
Shy aromas of herbal black currants and cedar were okay.
Medium-bodied with good acidity and a firm underlayment of tannin managed a plum flavored profile nuanced with black currants, licorice, and an unusual stone-fruit note.
Finished long and tart with pomegranate, mulberry, a bit peppery, and a Kanga ass kicking 14.5% alcohol.
Paired fine with my beefy Mexican cuisine.
