Friday, November 21, 2014 - Francesca's Birthday Celebration 2014 (Sentosa Resort and Spa): Tasted blind. Popped and poured.
Appearance is clear, deep intensity, purplish ruby colour. Legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of vanilla oak and cassis. Developing.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, high alcohol, high tannins, full body. Pronounced flavour intensity, with flavours of vanilla oak, blackcurrant, dark plums, milk chocolate, cassis, licorice, almond, cinnamon spice, and minty eucalyptus. Long finish.
Very good quality Aussie Cabernet Sauvignon from McLaren Vale. Oak still dominant at this stage and will need at least another 3-4 years to integrate. Good stuff that can only get better.
