TASTING NOTES

This very elegant wine is distinguished from its more illustrious sibling by offering full enjoyment at an earlier age. With airy tannins and a soft presence in the mouth, it shows an attractive freshness, great finesse and a finish notable for its surprisingly rich aromatic expression, but it is a seductive elegance which truly defines the wine.A family meal will highlight its qualities nicely, such as poultry, a blanquette or cutlets in cream. -Winemaker's Notes

 

90pts - Decanter

"Wonderfully aromatic and expressive on the nose - the aromas really just jump out the glass. So inviting. Juicy, red fruits - strawberries, raspberries and red cherries - quite bright and a nice change from the dark fruits. This is lively and fun, light with hints of spice underneath the fruit giving some structure and backbone. Hard not to like for its fruit-forwardness and easy drinking style. Though does have a spicy undertone which comes through on the finish."
