TASTING NOTE: Such a deep purple color here. This has around 12% viognier and delivers a super complex nose with such alluringly fragrant spices and crushed blackberries, as well as stones and light, peppery notes. The palate is bathed in rich, ripe dark-berry flavor with a spicy thread and long, fine-cut, silky tannins, holding super rich and pure. Very intense flavors on the finish - a real crescendo! Red and dark berries with cocoa powder to close. Drink or hold. Score - 95 (jamessuckling.com, April 2, 2020) |
