TASTING NOTE: Espresso and licorice notes give this firm red an austere, almost bitter character, but there's a core of currant fruit that opens to a floral finish. Firm, well-integrated tannins and balsamic acidity impart focus. Drink now through 2024. Score - 89 (Thomas Matthews, winespectator.com, Oct. 31, 2017) |
