TASTING NOTE: This is sweetly ripe and delightfully complex with spiced cherry, vanillin oak, dried herb and game notes, together with supple mouthfeel and fleshy texture, leading to a lengthy rounded finish. It's generous and plush with lovely spicy/savoury nuances. At its best: now to 2028. Score - 94 (Sam Kim, wineorbit.co.nz, May 2021) |
