A Disappearing Act

Rosemont
2002 Cabernet Sauvignon, “Mudge Hills of Gold”
Shane’s Notes
$20

What in the heck are the Aussies doing to their wine? We’ve probably had a half dozen Aussie wines now, and they have just about all tasted very bizarre to our palates. We haven’t liked them and this one was no exception. It showed powerful aromas of dark fruit. The palate is concentrated up front with some mint underneath but then the bottom drops out. The flavors in the palate just lose focus and disappear into an astringent finish. It is most unpleasant.
