TASTING NOTE: Aromas of baking spice, cedar and mocha reveal a beautifully balanced flow of sweet, ripe mulberry and dark bramble berry fruit bathing the palate robed in spice, red berry tang and oodles of charm. This is medium weight with good mouthfeel and a particularly full-fruited and lengthy aftertaste of lively replays, delicious and mouthwatering. Lovely sipped on its own, it shines with grilled rack of lamb. The price-quality ratio skews well in your favour. Exceptional-value wine. Score - 4.5 Stars (out of 5) (Vic Harradine, winecurrent.com, Aug. 30, 2016) |
