Warrenmang Vinello Italian Blend 2008
$19.00
Minty and menthol-like, this unusual blend of Italian red varieties is made in a very convincing but extracted style. ItÕs floral and spicy, with penetrative aromas of dark berries, cherries and plums backed by nuances of baked earth and five spice. ItÕs a lean, higher acid style with a pleasing length of bright berry and faintly currant-like fruit gripped tightly by drying, puckering tannins, but finishes long and savoury.

Warrenmang
Warrenmang is a mature vineyard at Moonambel, in VictoriaŐs picturesque Pyrenees region. Its rustic, powerfully ripened reds are typically firm and intense, with regional characteristics of mint and menthol. Experience suggests that at around five years of age, the wines tend to smooth out and settle down. One wine that needs no smoothing out whatsoever is the rather incredible, luscious and silky-smooth The Miracle blend of shiraz and cabernet varieties from 2008 (96/100, drink 2028-2038), which despite its 15% alcohol is simply remarkable for the illuminated qualities of its fruit and its rare degree of elegance.
