FOLIE À DEUX |
Very deep intense purple colour. Faintly sweetish, spicy, ripe plum-cherry nose with some cedar notes. Slightly sweetish, medium bodied, spicy, juicy, plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, somewhat cedary finish. This entry-level inspired crowd-pleaser has 14.9% alcohol and 7 g/L residual sugar with lot number L146517-6 on the back label. Better than the sweeter 2012 (*/*+) released on October 31, 2015 at $27.95. |

TASTING NOTE: Dark dusty garnet color. Fruity, toasty aromas and flavors of dried berries, spiced cherries, s'mores, and hint of incense with a silky, vibrant, fruity medium body and a silky, engaging, medium-long vanilla cream, spiced oranges and apples, praline, and pepper finish with soft, chewy tannins and light oak. A nicely balanced and flavorful zinfandel with great versatility. Gold Medal. Exceptional. Score - 93 (tastings.com, April 11, 2016) |
