Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: There’s a nice intensity to the nose, displaying floral notes, Christmas cake, dried fruit, red plum, candied cherry, leather and sweet spice aromas. It’s dry, medium full-bodied with a soft and lush mouthfeel. The aromas replay beautifully on the palate and are balanced by medium acidity and refined tannins. Very tasty, this is a wine to contemplate as it lingers on the finish. My note: Kirsch liqueur on the nose with gorgeous depths of black fruit, cappuccino, dried herbs and violets. A powerhouse wine with a blockbuster length. Food matches: stuffed mushrooms, Italian cheese bred, turkey burgers, lentil patties, salami.
