Pale brick-ruby-red colour. Very sweet, spicy, strawberry jam nose with some very faint herbal notes. Sweet, medium bodied, quite well structured, rich, ripe, fresh strawberry flavours with a lingering, tangy, fairly high acid, slightly honeyed, caramel-tinged finish. Has 11% alcohol and 163 g/L residual sugar. At $34.95 for 200 ml bottle, it fetches $65.38 per 375 ml. TONY ASPLER / 92-points / TRY - A nose of strawberry jam; medium-bodied, sweet strawberry, honey and orange flavours; beautifully balanced with great length. |

TASTING NOTE: This nectar of the gods is unctuous without being cloying and truly stunning. Aromas of strawberry jam and spice abound. It coats the palate with a smorgasbord of flavour with fresh strawberry, red plum compote and red raspberry to the fore. It's fully textured and creamy smooth with the lingering finish providing enough balancing acidity to make this an enjoyable experience, sip, after sip, after sip. Serve well chilled. Score - 5 Stars (out of 5) (Vic Harradine, winecurrent.com, June 22, 2016) |
