Ironstone minerals and chocolate aromas. Quite prominent acidity and mouth-coating, slightly furry tannins. Has the acidity been tickled upIronstone minerals and chocolate aromas. Quite prominent acidity and mouth-coating, slightly furry tannins. Has the acidity been tickled up? Merely good. It could have a faint trace of oxidation, which doesn’t really mar it. Merely good.

Deepest colour of the three Wendourees, with cassis and blackcurrant aromas bursting out of the glass; has the greatest depth, richness and dimension to the blackcurrant and anise fruit, the tannins and oak also having their say.
