Majella have an excellent reputation and in an effort to expand the number of Cabernet based wines in our cellar, I picked up a bottle of Majella Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2005 to try - it was a good move.
Vibrant aromas of blackcurrant, liquorice, menthol and spices. The palate is led by powerful and juicy blackcurrant fruit, plenty of super fine tannin and a little lingering coffee on the finish. Its robust, well balanced and very long - excellent Cabernet and good value at around $30.
If you are a bit of a tannin fiend, this is a rather enjoyable drink-now proposition, however it should really blossom after another 5 or more years in the cellar.
Score: 93/100
Price: $30
Closure: Screwcap
Alcohol: 14.5%

Would I buy this wine again?
Yes, I sense a six pack coming our way
I’ve always been a huge fan of the wines from Majella! Thanks for the savvy review!

I will recommend not to hold back until you earn enough amount of money to buy different goods! You can just get the loan or just short term loan and feel comfortable
