November 3, 2021 - NobleRottersSydney - Barossa Old Vine (Fix, St James, Sydney): {screwcap, 15%} [Graeme] Back-up for the Dorrien. We seemed to need more wine. This is a spiritual sibling of the Tanunda bottle, although the disappointment here is proportionately more with the even high price (just into 3 figures)! But the recipe is the same. Inky black fruit, like sniffing a bottle of iodine. The palate is syrupy and patchy at the same time; blackberry juice leavened with subtle oak. Medium/full weight, medium acid, low powdery tannins. Even palate that’s almost medium length in finish, but not refreshing or satisfying somehow. Pick the bloody grapes earlier, you bastards! No more cellaring needed for this either.
