Wine Review - Lysander Limestone Coast Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2000 **** I bought this as part of a mixed case from the Times wine club, along with a mixed case of Spanish Sin Crianza which was uniformly vinegar, hey ho. My most common complaint about Australian reds, especially those in the £4-8 price bracket is that they are so dull, all direct fruit and very fat in the mouth, usually with too high an abv level swamping the flavour, and the flavour itself, overcooked jam mostly. This though, as they say, is a little beauty. Good berry fruits with enough tannin and vegetable Cabernet flavour to make it interesting, it combined very well with a roast pork and crackling dinner. Good colour, good nose, nice long finish, the blurb on the bottle says it should cellar well up until 2006 or so, but I only have 3 more bottles so they are unlikely to survive that long.
