Heartland Cab Sauv 08 Makes "100 Best Aussie Wines of the Year" by Matthew Jukes ( a highly regarded UK Wine Critic ). This is a major achievement for a wine at this price. He writes- "Ben Glaetzer's trademark glossy, but detailed winemaking ensures that this exuberantly fruity wine manages to stay on the right side of self indulgent. With soaring cassis notes, a lick of menthol and posher oak than one would imagine for its workmanlike price point, this is a glorious piece of work and a real treat for fans of both Heartland and also this grape. Decant it for even more pleasure and you could easily convince your pals that this is a twenty pound wine."
"Deep ruby. Expansive, highly perfumed bouquet of blackberry, cherry-vanilla and smoky spices. Dense red and dark fruit flavors are framed by supple tannins that fade away on the back half. This sappy, broad wine boasts impressive structure and finishes with a persistent cherry note. 90/100 tanzer.
