    February 19, 2022 - Delicious and especially so just now

  • Clarissa4 Likes this wine: 88 points

    March 7, 2020 - Light to medium bodied, intense berry and plum flavours. Some tannins and acidity. Not much on the nose. Would probably work slightly chilled as a summer wine. Reasonable quaffer.

  • Rowchan Likes this wine: 88 points

    March 1, 2020 - Clear, perfect mauve with blush pink rim, and a wall of fast-moving tears.
    Clean, med+ intensity, with aromas of strawberries, rhubarb, pepper, violets, and black olives.
    Dry, med- body, med- alcohol, med acidity, med- tannins, with further tastes of plums, dates, soy sauce, and cloves. Delicate feel and a nice finish.

  • bacchus of knockholt Likes this wine: 88 points

    October 17, 2019 - Pale. translucent ruby. Lifted aromas that are floral, medicinal, oak spice, raspberry and red cherry. The palate has ripe raspberry and red cherry flavours, medicinal, spicy, a kick of menthol on the persistent finish.
