Gary Walsh, The WineFront
Cherry essence, rose and raspberry tea perfume, a little liquorice and tobacco. It’s succulent, juicy, aromatic in the mouth and dusted with fine grained tannin, and with that, a pleasant sense of autumnal decay, acidity fresh and settled, some orange peel, and again, a long slightly savoury tea laced finish. Beautiful wine. So classic.
