Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |

ZUCCARDI |
Very deep intense purple colour. Faintly reedy on the nose long ripe plum-cherry-cassis notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, ripe plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, fairly high acid, gently cedary finish. Tasted twice - quite ready-to-drink. This REPEAT has 14% alcohol and now only 3 g/L residual sugar with a new lot number L17-172-306 on the back label. TONY ASPLER / 89-points / BEST BUY - Earthy, spicy, black fruit nose with a cedary note; medium to full-bodied, dry and savoury with well-integrated oak and balancing acidity. A REPEAT of the recommended 2013 (**/**+) last released on July 23, 2016 at $19.95. |
