  Derwent & Coal Valley wineries; 4/20/2011-4/21/2011 (Hobart, Tasmania): {screwcap, 13.6%, A$45} Similar profile to its more modestly priced 'praxis' sibling, but here the aromas of grapefruit, oak, nuts, cedar with a briney touch are more generally intense and powerful. With medium acid and medium-weight, it has a more buttery texture overall, despite near-total lack of malolactic influence. There's a bit more presence here on the mid-palate too, but with rather mellow flavours (per the aromas) it doesn't really feel like a dimension beyond the cheaper (& younger) wine, just more volume. A nice wine for the next few years, but you're paying for what you get, not potential here.
