Wolf Blass Gold Label Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 2001

Adelaide Hills, Mount Lofty Ranges, Adelaide, South Australia, AustraliaThis Adelaide Hills blend has pronounced blueberry, cassis and licorice aromas streaked with peppery, tobacco, smoky vanilla and some coffee notes. It's a dry red with elegant style and fairly high acidity. The tannins are light but lean. Cassis, coffee, spicy, peppery, smoky vanilla flavours highlight the flavours with a streak of green bean cassis in the finish. Still young but it should soften with 2 to 3 years of bottle ageing. Contains 9 per cent franc.Tasted: 06 September 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
