4/16/2013 - MCUBEB Likes this wine: NRBeautiful wine that should last for few more years. Drank it over three days and it improved each day. Nose of red fruits and earth. On the palates there are red fruit with notes of raspberries, cherries and cranberries. It finishes with notes of flowers and some fine tannins. I wish I had more. |
