| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |

TEDESCHI |
| This just-retasted SECOND 2019 REPEAT has a fairly deep ruby red colour. Intense, slightly spicy, gently complex, ripe, plum-cherry-cassis fruit with some gentle cedary notes. Dry, medium bodied, fairly intense, bright, slightly spicy, ripe, plum-cherry-cassis flavours with a crisp, lingering, sandalwood-tinged finish. This tasty, versatile, now-ready-to-drink, new blend of 35% Corvine, 35% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella and 10% of four other varieties has 14.5% alcohol and 4 g/L residual sugar with a new lot number 2019 L9 on the back label. It shows better today than when last released on May 21, 2022 at $17.95. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Not everyone will appreciate the intensity of this wine, made partially with raisined grapes. Those who dare, will be surprised by the freshness underpinning the fruit concentration and the acidity that offsets the sturdy tannins. Intense blackberry, black cherry on the broad palate followed by finish of prunes and hedgerow. Drinking window: 2022-2026. Score - 92 (Ines Salpico, decanter.com, April 22, 2022) |
