Showing its Western Australian provenance with a little less fleshiness (when compared to the Dusty Dog). A wine still offering a rush of up-front black forest fruit but in a drier, gravelly-textured palate. An inky long finish with a touch of plum and spicey oak. http://www.spittoon.biz/new_australian_wines_at_naked.html

Appearance: darkish purple, slight orange rim. Nose: very appealing first nose with plum and blackberry fruit and aromas of mint and spicy oak. Very bright fruit matched with developing secondary aromas too. Palate: lovely fruit here, bright medium-high acidity, medium grainy tannins and integrated medium-high alcohol. Conclusion: nicely developed, cooler climate Cabernet-Merlot blend. Drink now to 2010.
