Yalumba The Scribbler 2010
There's something inherently comforting about a "Great Aussie Red", and this example from Yalumba shows its Cabernet (57%) dominant composition with plum, mulberry and spice on approach.
Good Cabernet structure on its medium bodied frame, charry oak and Shiraz generosity. Initially a little raw, twiggy tannin resolves a little over time and that line of spice is the gift that keeps on giving. Would love to see how it mellows - at the price a likely candidate to bob a few away for some time in solitary. 91 - Very Good
