Would you like me to insert a little introduction mentioning the trials of the 2011 vintage in certain areas of Australia? No, I didn’t think so…
70% Cabernet, 30% Merlot. Sweet, slightly confected black fruits on the palate with a ball of flavour upfront before it quickly trails away into herbs, tomato leaf, bracken and a general sense of green-ness. No real back-palate let alone length. Weeknight fodder at best. 84
