Best Blend |
bright fruited. well handled tannin. great acidity. |
purple fruit with some sweet florals, lovely gravelly grainy structure and length |
Vibrant purple, nice peppery blue-fruit aromatics; earthy, spicy palate. Nice mouth perfume at end. Enough power? |
Light bright and very red fruited, slightly confected but with support on the palate. A happy wine |
