Friday, December 31, 2010 - Taste of Tasmania 10/11 (Hobart): {screwcap, A$32} Soft and restrained nose. Plums, spice and subtle oak. Authentic enough. A wine that ticks all the ‘light-medium’ boxes; it’s quite well-balanced, and with a fresh cut of acid. The flavours are quite soft; spicy red fruits in a savoury style, just ripe enough, finishing quite dry. I was expecting to be a bit more ‘whelmed’ by this; but despite its rather ethereal nature I’ll put my faith in its intrinsic balance for the medium term.
