Monday, June 3, 2013 - NobleRottersSydney - Random night (Verde, East Sydney): [cork, 13%] {Graeme} The vintage has a poor reputation, so this was approached with some trepidation, but it defied expectation easily. Developing nose of smoke, earth and plums. No greenness evident here. It has medium chalky tannins and medium acidity, but the dusty & fairly opaque texture doesn’t obliterate the earthy cherry fruits. There’s a touch of stalk to the flavours, but nothing untoward; a nicely balanced palate finishes a little abruptly, but that’s about the worst you can say for it. Pretty good wine all round.
