Classic McLaren LaTesta Shiraz/Grenache/Cabernet Blend 2000


Opened a bottle of this Cleanskin again tonight as I had no chance to let anything else breathe in time... this wine did not disappoint.
It's a full flavoured red with a complex palate. Nothing discernably noticeable, but all good nonetheless.
I could pick a smoky fruit flavour and I have no idea what else unfortunately. No vanilla, but still i found this wine fairly smooth and quite easy to drink.
Of course... it should be, as advertised at $55 a bottle, but realistically it is a damn fine cleanskin.
Drinkability 90
Value 92
Price $17.95 (Get Wines Direct- cleanskin)
