The World of Fine Wine

16/20

" Nice purity and fruitiness, dark berries, cassis and kirsch, good notion of ripeness. The palate has a very good grip, juicy dark fruit, bright freshness, well rounded tannin and a pure long finish. "

" Barrel sample. This is a fresh, juicy wine with intoxicatingly fragrant black currant notes. The palate is ripe with fruit, but balanced with bright acidity and a lingering, juicy aftertaste. "
