TASTING NOTE: Lovely dessert wine, redolent of fresh strawberries and raspberries with some baking spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. Great balancing acidity for fruit-based cobblers and flans. Complex and satisfying with a long finish. Drink: [now]-2020. Score - 93 (Natalie MacLean, nataliemaclean.com, Feb. 7, 2015) |
