Tasting Notes - Charles Melton 9 Popes GSM 2002 (Recommended)

I ripped a few bottles of this off the shelf just before it sold out and I'm glad I did. A very good example of a super balanced wine that is aging beautifully at 5yrs. Note sure how this wine looks with a heap of cellaring but the 2002 looks like a drink 'now' through to early 2009. Quite generic in many respects with settled red berries and plums and a nice underlay of stinky grenache, albeit in the mildest possible form. Middle weight at best, but drinking nicely.
