Red fruit and some herbal notes on the nose. Intense mouthfeel with raspberry and chocolate. The tannins are still very much present, but all well balanced. This wine has a rounded mouthfeel, but still showing a lot of youth and fruit. This one needs more time.
Mint, herbal notes, and some cinnamon on the nose. Great structure and good balance. It is round and pleasant. It exhibits some warms spice notes on the palate and long finish.
Slightly cloudy in appearance. Great nose of caramel, butterscotch, and vanilla. The palate reveals a notes that remind me of a Verdelho Maderia – very dry with sharp acidity. Underneath are subtle notes of espresso and mocha powder.
Amber-orange in color. Rich notes of orange spice on the nose with just a hint of acetone. Orange zest and coffee notes on the palate. Nice acidity and long finish.
