Disappointing. Usually anything from Brown Brothers is good a very safe purchase. In the past this has been a very good everyday drinker. Unfortunately not now. Hard to discern fruit and finishes uncomfortably on the palette. Using an aerator improves it a little but not enough. I would happily pay a little extra if it returned to its former quality.

I have been buying the Brown Brothers Dry Red Cask for at least the last 5 years, and always thought it was the best of the cask wines. But over the last 2 years or thereabouts I have noticed a steady decline in the quality. This time, I found the wine undrinkable, which was both a shock and a huge disappointment. Come on Brown Brothers, it’s time to clean up your act.

For the price, impossible to beat. It’s actually a really good drinkable wine.

Wow best tasting red from a cask. Will be buying this regulary as its suitable to drink every night with a meal and you then can save opening a bottle.

Whilst it is the best of the casks it is too expensive for what it is. At $62/cask it is about $10 too much. If the price were $50 then it would be a good buy but as it is it's a nice buy but not for the budget conscious!

Just the ticket for the lockdown. Fewer trips to the shop. Excellent for a glass or two with dinner.
