With Tahbilk as my preferred source of everyday drinking wines (having started with the Everyday Drinking range and moved upmarket when finances allowed) this is close to the end of a box of the Cellar Door Reds selection, which is close to a steal at $160 freight free, and includes the rather good 1997 Old Vines Cabernet Sauvignon.
Tahbilk 2009 Tempranillo (4.5* 17.5 points $13.95) Deep, brooding red in the glass, tobacco and leather on the nose with savoury tannins I'd be right in line to reorder if it wasn't sold out, but there should be a bottle in the recently ordered Cellar Door Reds dozen. Memo to self: Watch for the 2011.
