[SOLD-OUT] Shirvington Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Region: SA- McLaren Vale

Robert Parker 95 Points!"A gorgeous effort, the 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon screams blueberries, creme de cassis, licorice, cedar, and spice box. The oak component can not stand up to the lavish, extravagant amounts of fruit and glycerin. This intense,...
