ALAMOS |
| One of 69 items (56% of 123 releases) not presented for evaluation 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 2015 last appeared in Vintages (**+) on November 24, 2018 at $16.95 and was Recommended Best Buy. Here is my previous note: Extremely deep purple colour. Fairly intense, spicy, juicy, ripe black cherry puree nose with some gentle cedar notes. Fairly dry, medium bodied, quite well structured, spicy, juicy, ripe plum-cherry purée flavours with a lingering, tangy, fairly high acid, cedary finish. Quite ready-to-drink. A GOOD BET |

| TASTING NOTE: A very fresh and spicy nose with plenty of bramble berries, violets, baking spices, vanilla and cloves. Full body, tight yet velvety tannins, no shortage of plummy fruit and a fresh yet long finish. Drink now. Score - 92 (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, April 5, 2018) |
