TN: Tatachilla Cabernet (Mclaren Vale) 1998

Post by Wizz »

This won a major gong from Winestate in 2000 I tihnk. time to look at it again.

Still youthfully coloured, balckcurrant and plum, some mint slice character of vanilla/mint, and cabernet like tannins that have an ever so slight green streak in them. I donÂ’t think the fruit is going to hold out much longer - drink up, and enjoy this now. 89/100.

Didn't Halliday rate this one 97?

TBH, I never saw a Halliday rating, but for me its nowhere near that good, and never was. Perhaps 92 points when a little younger.
