Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer TERRAZAS DE LOS ANDES
This is one of 75 items (134 releases) not presented to taste under new LCBO policies. Any item not tasted is assigned an interim ZERO-STAR (-) rating and an interim 0-POINT proxy score until properly assessed. The recommended 2015 (**+) with 89-points was released on November 24, 2018 at $19.95. Here is my previous note: Very deep intense purple colour. Attractive, slightly herbal, gently spicy, ripe plum-cherry-raspberry nose with some cedary notes. Dry, medium bodied, slightly spicy, intense, ripe plum-red and black cherry purée flavours with a lingering, cedary, faintly earthy, faint mocha-chocolate finish. Has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number CV Lot: 21283 on the back label. A GOOD BET! CSPC 29280
