Sanguine Estate Classic Quattro

Date: 22 April, 2011
Who: Chambo
What: 2005 Sanguine Estate Classic Quattro Cabernets, Heathcote
Purchased: around $25-30, I think (purchased mid 2008)
Food: an attempt at Welsh rarebit (grilled chese on toast - sort of)
Comments: it's not bad.  Pretty clearly a cab blend - usual cassis on nose and palette.  Medium bodied.  Tannins are quite powdery.  Alcohol a touch high and perhaps dominates?  Length not bad.  It is starting to open up as I get to the bottom of the first glass.  Let's wait while I start the second...yep, opening up nicely.  I would suggest it still has a few years to go so will drink with interest over the next little while.  But yeah, look, there's enough there now as well, so happy days.
