| 2002 d'Arenberg The Laughing Magpie Shiraz-Viognier (Australia, South Australia, Fleurieu, McLaren Vale) | 12/24/2008 | aczarnowski | 92 |
Decanted 40 minutes. This has come around and was better than expected. Nose of green olive, tar, and black fruits. Palate of blueberries and blackberries. Tannins not fully resolved but are soft. Little to no alcohol present. It could use more time in the bottle to possibly gain complexity. (3744 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
