Judges Selection [GFW21]

2021 Global Fine Wine Challenge

88 | Strong coconut oak. The oak really swamps this wine.

96 | Generous supple and chocolaty with lovey fruit complexity, ripe tannins and interacted oak.

88 | Ripe slightly jammy dark fruit with mocha and cedar notes. Soft rounded with some drying tannins and developed fruit characters.

95 | Fresh mulberry aromas, cassis. Blueberry, blackberry pie aromas. Sweet-fruited with blueberry pie notes, accents of ginger and nutmeg. Chewy towards the finish.
