Xanadu Dragon Cabernet Merlot 2006
By Gary Walsh
Well there you go. Here’s a Margaret River red where I prefer the 2006 vintage to the 2005 …at least I think so…it has been over a year mind you, so I could be wrong.
Impressive red purple colour then a blackcurrant, spice, mocha and an undercurrent of eucalyptus leaf and stalk. It’s medium to full bodied with firm but fine tannins, clean acidity and good flow and length. Attractive drinking (although admittedly slightly green tinged) - I think they’ve done well here.
