Yalumba The Menzies Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 1999

Coonawarra, South Australia, AustraliaSpicy, tobacco, cassis jam, coffee, smoky leather aromas with nice hints of black olive, vanilla, and liquorice. Dry, somewhat tannic, slightly hard entry with a bit of heat. Very rich flavours of vanilla, cassis, tobacco, olive, green bean, smoky leather and cardamom. A touch acidic on the finish and very young, this should improve over the next 3-7 years. Very Coonawarra and a top Menzies wine.Tasted: 08 January 2004Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
