85 Points

Tuesday, June 26, 2012 - This is definitely a steal for the price (~S$32). Sweet and expressive aromas of licorice, sweet herbs, blackcurrant and blackberry fruits. Vanilla showing up with some swirling. Excellent richness and concentration (for its range) here. When you thought this is a fruits forward wine and drinking well now, the firm, fine tannin backbone that kicked in after the entry tell you it deserves min 3yrs to really show what its got. Medium - long, quite intense finished with roasted coffee bean bitterness. Well done. 85-86+
