[SOLD-OUT] Balnaves The Tally Reserve Cabernet 2006

 

"Strong hit of mint. Bands of violet, boysenberry, blackcurrant. Super fresh. Barely developed. Floral and fruity but lingering. Elegant but every detail is emphasised. Looks excellent. Still needs a little time." - Campbell Mattinson, Wine Front, 2015

 

"The 2006 Tally has a Mid-deep red-purple tinge. Lifted nose, bright blueberry and blackberry fruit and perfumed violets with integrated charry oak and a slight minty note. The palate is mid weight with bright red and blackberry fruit and firm tannins. Tannins still not integrated with the fruit but the balance is good. Hold."  Balnaves

 

 “A huge wine flooded with Cassis. blackberry and raspberry fruit. a liberal application of complex oak offering toast. cedar. spice. nougat and play doh with additional characters of black liquorice. mint and a few violets just poking their heads above the surface. It ™s full bodied with enormous extract and flavour. dense and brooding with a big spread of chalky tannin and extreme length of flavour. A powerhouse that needs at least a decade of cellaring. 95 points." - Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
