LA POSTA |
| Deep intense purple colour. Blueberry compote nose with some spicy, ripe cherry and vanilla notes. Dry, medium bodied, slightly spicy, ripe, plummy-cherry flavours with a lingering, fairly crisp, somewhat cedary, gently sweetish finish. Ready-to-drink. Better than the 2008 (*+/**) released on January 8, 2011 at $15.00. |

| TASTING NOTE: Bright ruby-red. Dark fruits, chocolate, roasted herbs and licorice on the nose, with attractive spicy lift. Sweet and seamless but energetic, with good lift to the spicy blackberry and violet flavors. This dense, smooth wine finishes with serious broad tannins and very good length. Score: 89 (Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar, Jan./Feb. 2011) |
