DE BORTOLI SERO SYRAH TEMPRANILLO 2005

Friday, May 16th, 2008


(King Valley, Vic)A very unusual blend whcih seems to work perfectly. Medium bodied and utterly savoury, more European than Oz, making for a superb contemporary food style.’In some ways this is the ultimate slurpable drop, though it does taste a bit different - so be brave. It’s fresh and tangy, with ripples of cherries and plum-like flavours. Sour, meaty, spicy elements make it enormously interesting and good with a wide range of winter food.’Campbell Mattinson, The Australian Way, Qantas Magazine, June 2006
