Jan 28th, 2020At the Downs Club Magnum Christmas Dinner. The wine is deep crimson, more savoury than berry aromas. Same on the palate needing more mid palate fruit. Astringent. I have never been a big fan of The Menzies. My theory is that Yalumbas best Cabernet fruit goes into the $300 The Caley followed by The Signature and then The Menzies.
