TASTING NOTE: A knockout nose of brilliant raspberry, thick cherry and integrated herbs and bramble notes. It's unctuous on the palate but not cloying due to relatively high acidity. It shows a range of sweet red fruits that are rich and luxurious on the finish. Decadent red icewine for those special occasions. Score - 92 (Rick VanSickle, winesinniagara.com, Nov. 14, 2018) |
