2007 Cape Mentelle Margaret River Zinfandel
2007 Cape Mentelle Margaret River Zinfandel

Limited - first in best dressed. Intrduced to the Cape Mentelle vineyard from California in 1975, zinfandel is a particularly challenging variety to manage both in the vineyard and the winery. The resulting hedonistically rich wine makes all the hard work worthwhile and as such the Cape Mentelle zinfandel has developed something of a 'cult' following amonst lovers of bold red wines. "This is one of the best Mentelle zinfandels of recent times. Ironstone aromas plus hints of jam and wood among a complex array of aromas. Smooth, rich, savoury with drying tannins and lots of gravitas ... stacks of flavour and character." 92/100 Huan Hooke, Sydney Morning Herald.
