The Show Cabernet Sauvingnon 2005
I just picked up a few cases of this Cabernet. I thought it had a great Red Wine taste that is easy to drink. No food necessary. Its very Big and Bold dominated by fruit flavors, Black Cherries and Jammy preserves, has a layer of spice and sweet vanilla from generous oak usage. Joel Gott had his hands in making this and its big fruit forward flavor reflects this. $12.98 a bottle $140.20 a case (arrives Wednesday).
Tintara Shiraz 2004
Ripe blackcurrant coupled with spicy oak and a savoury hint of beef jerky.

Tintara Shiraz skilfully embraces the best of new-age winemaking while still retaining and using much of the original equipment and winemaking methods of the past. The Hardys Tintara Shiraz is made with premium fruit sourced at selected vineyards across the McLaren Vale. $14.98 a bottle, $161.78 a case.
