Vasse Felix Cabernet Merlot 2000
Margaret River, Western Australia, AustraliaThe 2000 vintage of cabernet merlot was the first off the new vineyard in Margaret River -- the Heytesbury Vineyard. Crops were kept at around 3 tonne per hectare, Look for mocha coffee, compost and a weedy, green olive nose. Smooth sleek entry and fine elegance with similar flavours and some coffee mint in the finish. A trace of elevated acidity marks the smooth textures in the finish. Expect a bit of dry fine grain tannins in the finish. The final blend is 58% cabernet sauvignon, 35% merlot and 7% cabernet franc.Tasted: 06 May 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $26.99 | 750ml | Specialty |
