Cullen 2011 Diana Madeline Red (Margaret River)

Country: Australia / Diana Madeline
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Western Australia
Winery: Cullen / Margaret River

Crisp and compact, the 2011 Diana Madeline undoubtedly needs at least another couple of years in the cellar. The nose is leafy and herbal, but the flavors show cherry fruit framed by subtle shadings of vanilla. The tannins are firm, imparting a drying sensation to the long finish.
