Ripe white peach, daffodil, apple blossom, poached pear and plumeria aromas show on the clean and full nose of this bottling. Those floral and white fruit flavors feature strongly on the sip too, but the racy acidity and a linear tension keeps everything in check, finishing on a hint of coconut oil.
Wine Tasting Notes
The fourteenth Notebook red wine is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon blend with traditional red varieties that flourish in our hot, dry climate. Delicious! Made and drinks like a far more expensive wine with all the ripe power and texture of 2018 's vintage. Aromatically rich and delicious to quaff, Notebook is ready to drink from summer barbecues through to winter meals. The wine 's aromatics display savory barrel-aged complexity. Heaps of youthful red fruits like black cherries, plums, red currants and figs wrapped with cedar, caramel and chocolate. Succulent smooth fruit begins, with flavors of baker 's chocolate, black cherry, blackberry, toast, dried herbs, tobacco and cola finish. It 's a deliciously affordable wine.
