| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
QUAILS' GATE |
| Medium deep red colour . Fairly intense, attractive, gently complex, slightly spicy, warm ripe plum nose with some cherry notes. Dry, medium-bodied, quite well structured, ripe plum-cherry-strawberry flavours with some crancherry notes on the crisp, high acid, very faintly smoky, cedar-vanilla finish. Has 13% alcohol and 9 g/L residual sugar with a screwcap closure. A second bottle was a tad more restrained! The recommended best buy 2013 (***) was released on April 18, 2015 at $26.95. |
