| 2001 Devil's Lair Fifth Leg Red Leaving the competition reeling, a fresh catch of 5th Leg has surfaced. On the line Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot offer up a perfumed, briary basket of black fruits spiced by the ever-present Shiraz. Also ready for a dip in the vinous pool is Cabernet Franc, rounding out the trio with the stealth of oak for structure and balance. Definitely a big fish in the pond. 5th Leg Red is now ready to be served. Are you going to throw this one back? The 2001 Fifth Leg Red is a stunning wine, with excellent palate structure, sweet fruit and fine aromatics. Grape Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz (Syrah), Merlot Maturation: The wine was barrel aged for 12 months in a combination of American and French oak. Medium to full bodied with a silky fruit-driven mid-palate. Persistent berry/cherry characters balanced with a firm structure. A mouthful of generous fruit flavours kept in check with fine tannins. The finish is long and persistent with an excellent balance of fruit and tannin. review provided by Murphy's wine bar |
