Saturday, April 9, 2022 - Not for those looking for well-aged, old-style Bordeaux, this stunning bottle of McLaren Vale cab is very much as Parker had it in ( (8/2003): "The Screaming Eagle of South Australia, it possesses great purity, layers of fruit, enormous volume and intensity, and at the same time, it is strikingly elegant and well-proportioned. This stunningly pure Cabernet tastes like pure creme de cassis intermixed with licorice and oak. It should drink well for 15-16 years,and..." We timed the finish at plus 60 seconds. Oh so seductive, seamless and utterly satisfying. This wine, (as represented in this bottle) has evolved beautifully from when we first tasted one over 10yrs ago. For its style, near perfect. Stored @55 degrees.
