| TASTING NOTE: This award winner offers a perfumed nose of garrigue, vanilla, spice and ripe field berries. Nicely balanced and medium-full bodied, the tasty flavours of raspberry, plum and black cherry are garnished with spicy peppery notes while ripe tannins and clean acidity add to the frame and substance. Weighty on the palate, the wine is warm, ripe, rich and flavourful, delivering a long velvety finish. This is versatile at the table and offers exceptional value. Score - 4.5 Stars (out of 5) (Susan Desjardins, winecurrent.com, Feb. 1, 2016) |
