  December 27, 2023 - i can't say i love the new world fruit bombs like i used to. i think that ship has sailed. but, when new world producers get it right, they are wines to behold. ...the royal city just does everything right. it packs all kinds of juicy fruit and heavyweight punch. but it's not flabby or over-the-top. there's fantastic depth, complexity and balance. up front, it's blackberry and blueberry fruit which segues into an interesting savoury (is that olive?) flavour on the back end. after all these years, this continues to shine.
