TASTING NOTE: Despite the name (and the alcohol), this has unexpected elegance and balance; black cherry and blackberry fruit have a dusting of spice, the tannins fine and supple (an unusual combination). It all adds up to a coherent message. Drink By: 2032. Score - 95 (James Halliday, winecompanion.com.au, Oct. 6, 2016) |
