| 2002 Noon Eclipse - Australia, South Australia, Fleurieu, McLaren Vale (7/15/2006)
WIML93,WA97,NOWS
Tasted July 15, 2006 at an offline. Opened and served immediately in a Riedel Vinum Cabernet glass. Dark purple to crimson color in the glass, clear throughout. Pretty tight nose giving up a little mix berries, spice box and some saddle soap. Flavors of chocolate covered cherries, red currants and red licorice. Medium acidity, medium to firm tannins. Full bodied. Came across as a little hot in my opinion. I’d recommend holding a few years before trying again and probably planning on at least an hour in the decanter at that. No value recommendation. (93 pts.) | |
