Monday, March 7, 2011 - NobleRottersSydney - 'Bet you've never tasted this before' (Alio's, Surry Hills): [screwcap, 13.9%] {Graeme} Garnet. Developing nose of strawberries and cream. No stalky or green notes are apparent, but it avoid jamminess. There’s a touch of dark chocolate about the developing flavours, still no green apparent, but dustily dry tannins and submerged oak give it a little grip. Only medium-bodied in weight, it does have a well-balanced presence along the tongue and a medium-plus finish, albeit slightly warm. Maybe has another 5 years of development left, and although a decently interesting wine, lacks the ultimate complexity. Nice wine for the label’s debut, though, and suggests future vintages will be worth watching.
