Deen De Bortoli Vat 1 Durif 2002

86POINTS

15^½/20

South Eastern Australia, AustraliaOpen spicy, gamey, black cherry jam nose with some vanilla, cedar and leather. Dry and astringent at this point which isn't unusual for young durif. The flavours are a mix of game, licorice, cherries and peppers with a cedar, spicy finish. Good fruit but a leg of lamb or soft cheese will be required to tame the tannins.Tasted: 10 November 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
