Warburn Premium Reserve Barossa Cabernet Merlot 2008

Wine: Warburn Premium Reserve Barossa
Type: Cabernet Merlot
Year: 2008
Price: $8.50
Date: 24/06/2009
Reason for purchase: Another of the batch from May.

Review: This has some nice fruity flavours that come through at the start of each mouthful. However there is a bit of a heavy aftertaste that isn't particularly welcome.

There is a bit of balance between the softer Merlot parts and the heavier Cabernet parts, making this an alright drink.

The whole point of this under $10 challenge is to find out which wines are worth persevering with, and those that are just plain vinegar. This one is closer to the vinegar mark, and given it's getting closer to the $10 mark than some of the others, not highly recommended.

Rating: 6/10 -DF-
