Voyager Estate 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot PlonkOz04

 

Whilst the bouquet is dusty, it is also fruity and shows good balance but equally shows its youth and need for further cellar maturation. Abundant dusty tannins and distinct, deep fruit provide the basis for a solid, well built, quality wine of muscular-weight. Off-sweet black cherry, plum, violet scented floral fruit as good length across the palate and finishes long. The firm, solid, like wine with a well-developed complexity its chewy now and needs time to show its best. Rated as Highly Recommended with *** for value, come back and revisit in 2008.
