General: Tasted a couple of weeks ago before we were hit with the heatwave.Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon 52%, Shiraz 30%, Malbec 12%, Merlot 6%
Alcohol: 14.5%
Bouquet: Not surprisingly, the Cab wins through. Blackcurrant predominant but spices, particularlyblack pepper also present for a compex nose.
Flavour: Stewed plums in the main. Also blackcurrant. Medium tannins. The alcohol level appears in the mouth.
Points: 84
Notes: This was very enjoyable. It will be interesting to see if the alcohol still appears after another couple of years of ageing.
from this producer i have the verdello, so it would be interesting to taste it and compare. seems good
