Kooliburra, Shiraz Cabernet - Wine Review

I intend to take photos of the wine we drink, before we empty the bottles, but as always seems to happen - I forget until the following morning, hence the majority of my wine review blog posts having photos of empty wine bottles on them. Ha!
Here's yet another empty wine bottle shot. 

Kuliburra. Cab Sav.

Kooliburra, Shiraz Cabernet, a red wine from South Eastern Australia, that Mr.R bought from Lidl. It cost £3.99.
Kooliburra is aboriginal for small lizard. 

From the bottle label -
This deeply coloured wine mixes ripe dark-berry fruits with subtle spice and mint. Full bodied and richly textured it displays an intensity of red berries, blackcurrants and plums leading to black olives, cloves and spice. The finish lingers with soft ripe tannins making it a perfect match to full flavoured meat dishes. 

We enjoyed this wine. It's was full-bodied rich fruity, bursting with dark berry fruits, red berries and blackcurrants, with a delicate spicy soft tannin finish.
It's a New World blend of Shiraz Grapes; 60% and Cabernet Sauvignon; 40%.
Have you tried a bottle of Kooliburra, Shiraz Cabernet?
What's your opinion? I'd love to know.
