LONDON CALLING CABERNET MALBEC 2015 Clare Valley, South Australia |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
CLAYMORE |
Extremely deep intense purple colour. Cedary, Noxema-tinged, baked plum-cherry nose. Dry, medium bodied, somewhat tart, herbal, baked plum-apple-cherry flavours with a lingering, high acid, cedary finish. Not my style. This blend of 75% Cabernet and 25% Malbec has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with a screwcap closure. |

TASTING NOTE: This is a 75-25 blend and works wonderfully. It's full of up-front fruit, as so often the Claymore wines are, but it's far from fur coat and no knickers. There is plenty of elegant silk and satin underpinning the fruit. Score - 94 (Tony Keys, thekeyreport.com.au, Feb. 16, 2017) |
