McLaren Vale, Fleurieu, South Australia, Australia
I brought two bottles up from the cellar since I was skeptical that the '97 Rosemount Red Rhone Blend 'GSM' would still be drinkable. Wow, it had more fruit aromas and flavors than most recent vintages. Vivid plummy cherry flavors and subtle spiciness with nice underlying acidity. Rich and round with beautifully integrated oak and a smooth persistent finish.
