Notes | |||
"The taste is dry, but soft, full-bodied, velvety and well-balanced, and is very long-lasting. Garnet red with good intensity. The scent reminiscent of spices like nutmeg, laurel and black pepper, red fruit, black licorice. The wine in mouth is important, powerful and harmonious tannins, very fresh acidity that favors long lasting." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"I love the fragrant herbs here, which include tamarind and oregano, and work extremely well with the dried berries and flowers. Medium to full body, taut acidity and a spicy finish. Very well done from here. Drink now or hold." —James Suckling |
