Ripe and rich, it’s all about black fruits – mulberry and blackberry with some rum and raisin thrown in supported by older oak. The palate is then user friendly – plump, ripe and fleshy delivering good flavour and generosity for everyday drinking with a spicy meaty finish that draws you in to a second glass. It’s hard to fault for the price.
I haven’t tried every bottle in this selection yet, however, so far they are all very tasty. I’m a Chardonnay lover, always on the look out for a dryish not sweet wine and these are just right for me. An excellent mixed case and we’ll priced.
This was a very nice surprise in Wine Direct’s very welcome Plenty Under $20 category. Beautifully fruity, rich and smooth. Often the Plenty Under $20 range is a little light for the depth I like but I will definitely be reordering this one.
A great summer wine… elegant and a fine balance of lighter fruit and delicate acidity with a nice dry finish. Very drinkable with or without food. A nice change from our usual unoaked French Chardonnay
