    October 14, 2013 - "2014" Sydney International Wine Show - stewarding notes; 10/13/2013-10/18/2013 (Blue Mountains, NSW): {screwcap, 14%} A beautiful, youthful melding of strawberries and cherry aromas. The dry palate is ripe, smoke and strawberry-flavoured, with fairly low chalky tannins, and a light/medium body. Although soft and gentle on the palate it’s not spineless, there’s a core of acid supporting a medium-length finish. The impression does soften on the mid and back palates somewhat. A good wine for the shorter term, probably over-priced though.
