| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
LUIGI BOSCA |
| NO SHOW - One of 67 items (55% of 121 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 2013 last appeared in Vintages (**+) on March 4, 2017 at $29.95 and was Recommended Best Buy. Here is my previous note: Fairly deep intense purple colour. Slightly spicy, ripe plum-cherry nose with lots of cedar-sandalwood notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, quite well structured, harmonious, plummy, baked cherry flavours with a lingering, cedary finish. Rare rib steak time. Has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number 102-00320031 on the back label. |
