DE LOACH |
Very deep purple colour. Spicy, fairly juicy, attractive, ripe black-cherry-plum nose with some cedary, notes. Fairly dry, medium bodied, quite well structured, harmonious, spicy, gently juicy, ripe cherry-plum puree flavours with a lingering, somewhat cedary, fairly high acid finish. TONY ASPLER / 88-points - Dense purple-ruby in colour; leather and plum on the nose with well-integrated oak; medium-bodied, dry, fruity blackberry and plum flavours with lively acidity. Has 15% alcohol and 3 g/L residual sugar. Much better than the 2012 (*+/**) with 87-points released on August 22, 2015 at $32.95. |
