“Splendidly ripe and inviting, the bouquet shows dark plum, thyme, game and toasted nut aromas, leading to a juicy palate delivering smooth texture backed by finely polished tannins. Wonderfully composed and styled with a lengthy delectable finish.” - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
A heady chocolate and cherry bouquet following through to a soft and inviting front palate. The ripe tannins form a backdrop for vibrant fruit display combining to create a long lingering lip-smacking finish.
This is very good value for money. A Piedmont red under $30! It has good dark fruit, some nice tannins and acid to balance although it would benefit from some more age to smooth it a bit but I liked its feistiness now.
I was happily surprised by the quality of the labels in the "mystery" case of rose wines - great value for the money I must say. Excellent drinking experience from the unfamiliar labels and happy to enjoy again the familiar ones.
