TASTING NOTE: The 2013 The Scribbler Cabernet Shiraz opens with expressive cassis, eucalyptus, dark chocolate and mulberry notes, over aromas of some pencil shavings and baking spices. A blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon and 49% Shiraz, the wine has a medium body and good structure. This blend is firm, grainy and muscular, with great length.
