Variety: Sangiovese
Region/G.I.: Fleurieu, McLaren Vale
Vintage: 2009
Colour: Copper red
Alcohol: 13.0%
Bouquet: Nettles, wet earth and lifted aromas of a freshly opened package of jubes (soft, chewey sweets)
Flavour: The dark cherry flavours is followed by still quite strong tannins although the the length is moderate rather than long. Some strong black tea flavours in the mix as well.
Points: 82 (3+7+10+6+6+50)
Notes: $12.57 (~225 kc). Tasted more than a year ago here. Tasted now after bottle is open for an hour. A little simple and the tannins a tad rough. Willl try again in a couple of days. Nice for the rapidly cooling night tonight but likely the last red for a while...
