Ladbroke Grove Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2003

Unfortunately this wine didn’t show as well as when tasted over Christmas at the cellar door. Garnet red, a little lighter in the glass than expected. Ok nose, a mix of herbs and sweet berry fruits. Nice but lacks conviction. Tightish palate, dark fruits, some oak, drying tannins. Quite serious but not really all together just yet. Drying finish. Ladbroke typically know what they are doing do I’d give this one a chance and rest for another 2 years.
