Blackcurrant and savoury mint aromatics
Smooth long tannins provide a firm structure, spread wide under dark fruit and sage. Underlying acidity is plenty adequate to hold this for a while yet (1331 views) | | Tasted by graemeg on 12/5/2016: NobleRottersSydney - Langtons Classification (360 Bar & Dining, Sydney): {screwcap, 14.5%} Slightly evolved in aroma (not the deep ruby/black colour!) but largely smelling of black-tinged spearmint and blackcurrant fruit. It’s full-bodied, richly-extracted, with all Clare’s super-ripe, verging on over-ripe dark brambly, liquorice-like shiraz on offer. Plenty of heat comes through too. Big impact on the mid-palate, medium acid, surprisingly soft dusty tannins. The finish is medium-length. There’s nothing really to complain about if you like the full-throttle style, and it’s no fruit-bomb caricature either. And yet, I still think it’s at best around a decade old; time to start opening these. (1870 views) |
