Producer |
KAIKEN |
Extremely deep intense purple colour. Fairly intense, slightly spicy, ripe plum-blueberry nose with some cedar notes. Fairly dry, medium to medium-full bodied, dense, well structured, slightly spicy, tangy, fresh, ripe, black cherry-blueberry-plum flavours with a lingering, crisp, gently cedary finish. Has 14.5% alcohol and 5 g/L residual sugar with lot number L15357 on the back label. A solid, ripe, ready-to-drink, crowd-pleaser. The current average price in the US is $24 CND. TONY ASPLER / 89-points / BEST BUY - Dense purple black in colour; cedary, mulberry nose with a smoky note; full-bodied, spicy black fruit flavours; chunky mouth-feel with richly extracted black fruit flavours riding on lively acidity. |
