Wine Tasting 45: 2004 Marquis Philips Sarah's Blend from Australia - 02:57

 

    If you love full blown, upfront, loud New World wines then this is for you! Don't get me wrong as I equally love a backward, sensual old world wine too. Like blonds and brunettes I love them all. There are occasions that I lust over new world wines and there are other moments I yearn over the liquid poetry of old world classics. The Marquis Philips wine is a joint project between overly talented Sarah and Sparky Marquis and Yankee importer Dan Philips. Doesn't that give you a hint that something BIG is coming along the way? The Sarah's Blend is a Pseudo-Bordeaux style blend but very un-Bordeaux like due to its very 'new world' style and it's 60+% Shiraz content! The nose was assertive with showy concentrated ripe black current cassis, black plum intermixed with sweet vanilla spicy wood. In fact, the resemblance of a British Maynard black wine gum on the nose is profound! The full body wine was fruity, juicy, upfront and had much weight sitting on my tongue. Eucalyptus, cola, black licorice and dark chocolate to follow. The tannin was sweet and supple and the acid too was well balanced. The finish was generous but the alcohol (at 15%) finally emerged with some hotness. This wine can age for 5+ years. At Cad$20 for a $50 quality wine - a steal. US Viewers- this is even cheaper at discount stores!!! (Rating 91-93 points) by Michael Lam of the Beverage Review.
