2019 Meerlust RedStellenbosch Red Bordeaux Blend more |
12/1/2023 - L_McNichol wrote: NRThe wine has an intense, dark purple color with a violet rim. Bright & vivacious in the glass, very youthful. The nose is expressive with powerful cassis, plum, exotic spice & hints of floral aromas. On the palate the wine is medium bodied with intense flavours of crushed black fruit, cassis, vanilla & dark chocolate. The tannins are very soft & silky with fresh acidity & a focused, linear flavour profile. The wine has a persistent & long lasting aftertaste. |
