Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
WINE SHOWCASE - 95 POINTS - GOLD MEDAL
Lovely blackberry aromas with an aromatic lift. Elegant palate with a magnificent structure full of rich fruit, crisp acidity and savoury tannins.
WINE ENTHUSIAST - 88 POINTS
This wine is deep ruby in color and with a vibrancy and clarity in its appearance. On the nose, sandalwood, green pepper and confectionary vegetal notes are visceral. The palate matches, but includes notes of black plum, ripe raspberry and dark chocolate on the finish. The tannins—gritty and long—coat the gums, making this is a great wine for a fatty steak. Ribeye anyone?
NOSE: Deep, rich, dark fruit intensity.
PALATE: Structured dark and stewed fruit characters with good weight and grippy Cabernet tannins
PAIR: A good burger.
