Rosemount Traditional Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Petit Verdot 1996

McLaren Vale, South Australia, AustraliaObvious ripe blackberry jam with pepper, earth and coffee. Very slick in the mouth, soft tannins and round. Sweet oak, coffee, weedy, pepper and cherry flavors, long smooth finish with a somewhat tight tannin earth aftertaste. Panders a bit to oak lovers but we like the richness and length.Tasted: 01 March 1999Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
