General: Our post-dinner drink, like our pre-dinner one, was something special. This one brought by a guest
Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz
Region/G.I.: Blended from South Australian grapes (Shiraz from McLaren Vale, Cabernet from Limestone Coast)
Vintage: 2000
Alcohol: 13.5%
Bouquet: Sensuous. Dark chocolate, cocao dust, hints of mulberry, a touch of vanilla.
Flavour: Very smooth and integrated. Every taste brought new flavour combinations with gentle stewed (plum, mulberry) fruit, vanilla and cinnamon. Great length and held together nicely with drying tannins still working magic
Points: 91
Notes: Current vintage is 2009 so it clearly pays to wait.
