Smooth wine with some sweet fruit but it’s contained by the acidity and being under 14% alcohol. Score: 90/100.
Tasting Note: Opaque ruby in colour with good acidity, a medium intense nose, round tannin & a long length on the finish. This wine features: Plum, Bing cherries, mulberry, blueberry, cocoa, cloves, cinnamon & vanilla.
Negatives: None
Interesting Point: Originally reviewed 2014 vintage in 2018, and the price is still the same today. That’s unprecedented!
Pairings: Drink this now or in the next 3 – 5 years on its own or pair it with beef back ribs.
