Burton 2001 Limestone Coast Cabernet PlonkOz04

 

An attractive nose, there is tons of sweet blackcurrant fruit with a tube of spearmint toothpaste thrown in. A clean wine, the fruit is attractive, ripe with reasonable varietal characteristics but a little thin for the drying powdery tannins. Medium-weight, the consistency is firm, structure solid and the complexity agreeable. Rated as Acceptable with *** for value.
