Cooks Lot wines represent pretty good value. There is nothing flashy about this drop but it is more than suitable for the price point.
The wine started to show its true colours on day two, keep in mind though it is a 2012.The sample tasted had only been in the bottle a couple of months.
Made with the use of new French oak, it is a savory type. Orange rind, sour cherry and a good dash of cedery oak on the nose.
Gentle savory spice and nice red berry flavours dance around in the mouth. A juicy type acid evident too. A jab of pepper rounds off the finish which lingers.
