Alkoomi Frankland River Shiraz 2001
Great Southern, Western Australia, AustraliaOpen meaty, licorice, stewed prune and tea leave nose with a whack of spice in the back. Big rich mid-palate with dark fruit and more licorice, gamy undertones. There's heightened acidity here too but this time the structure of the wine carries it better. Warm, tannic and intense. Good but will need a year or two to settle down.Tasted: 28 August 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $19.99 | 750ml |
