NobleRottersSydney - <>A$40 blind (Fix, St James, Sydney): {cork, 14.9%} [Graeme] This inaugural – and so far only - vintage was released a few years ago for ~A$240 as some kind of duty-free-market, ultra-premium cuvee. Despite the high alcohol, it’s lean and peppery on the nose. Its full-bodied weight seems to derive mostly from alcohol, as the black fruit is baked and over-ripe. Medium chalky tannins and medium acidity can’t save it either. It’s not sweet as you might otherwise expect, but finishes only medium length and without promise of much improvement. Maybe a decant would have helped? Maybe not…
