Chateau Reynella Shiraz Basket Pressed 1996
McLaren Vale, South Australia, AustraliaTight, fairly closed on the nose with more earth, licorice and pepper than fruit at this point, has hints of plum jam. Big rich fruit flavours of ripe plum jam, pepper, earth and jasmine sit on the mid-palate and fill your mouth but the finish is tannic and dry, very young. Will need several years to come around.Tasted: 01 March 1999Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $28.95 | 750ml |
