2014 Totino Estate Wines Shiraz Francesco Riserva

"2019" Sydney International Wine Show - stewarding notes; 10/7/2018-10/12/2018 (Blue Mountains, NSW): {14.5%} Black/purple colour. Minty cabernet nose. Very Adelaide Hills. The palate contributes spearmint as well to add to the mint-fest, but there are olive, currant and even raisin flavours too. Medium/full body. Palate is a bit patchy somehow, kind of medium length but doesn’t quite hang together. You need to like the style/flavour profile; it only becomes more pronounced over time. For me it’s over-ripe a bit and lacks freshness and balance.

A very food friendly wine. Gobs full of ripe plumb fruit, without being a total fruit-bomb or too jammy. A nicely balanced wine with hints of pepper and spice. Very moreish. A real crowd-pleaser.

Not a style I prefer, but a pleasant surprise. As an easy-drinking style it is difficult to take it too seriously, that would be missing the brief.

{screwcap, 13.5%} Plenty dark, plenty ripe (tastes hotter than the alcohol level indicates), but still rent with cool-climate olive and spearmint flavours. It tends to be big and clunky-tasting; there are no fine powdery tannins here. There's a big hole in the mid-palate - it defines hollow - and the finish is short/medium-length at best. Not otherwise quirky enough to overcome its shortcomings...

{screwcap, 14.5%} Youthful, typical aromas of mint, red berries, soft vanilla oak. Perhaps a menthol tinge to the flavours is the only thing to hint at the cool-climate origin of this wine; it has medium-bodied weight, spicy mint flavours, and a thickish sort of medium-length finish that carries an alcoholic signature. Very youthful, sure; but is still only really a 5-year proposition. Fair, but unmemorable.
