Tasting Notes

[This magnum version of our popular Essential (168179) is here for the holidays!] Lifted red fruit aromas, mingled with the sweet scent of candied strawberries and an array of floral notes that gently waft out of the glass. It is abundant in spice, with hints of licorice, clove and vanilla. Lush and giving on the palate the wine is driven by its fruit character while savory spices and earth notes stand in the wings. The wine finishes with rounded tannins that allow the wine to be opened today [or held into the late 2030s]. (Jeff Porter,Other,Sept. 1, 2024)
