2003 Vasse Felix Classic Dry RedMargaret River Cabernet-Shiraz Blend, Red Blend more |
4/26/2022 - michael talbot Likes this wine: 85 pointsCork ok. Colour ok. Warm nose. Settled in the glass after 1/2 an hour becoming friendly and open. Smashed a pairing with cheddar. Probably should score it higher, esp as fruit more obvious once it settled in the glass. Drink now, but dont be surprised it it comfortably drinks for another 5+ years. |
