TASTING NOTE: Rich while also structured, this big, ripe wine comes from an estate owned by the Càlem family since the 1820s. It has concentration both from the tannins and from the black-plum fruits, and offers good potential. Drink from 2019. Editors' Choice. Score - 91 (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, Feb. 1, 2017) |
