Tasting Notes
| Steve Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 86 | |
| Medium to dark garnet, with ruby highlights. Reticent aromas of sottobosco and tobacco. Rather unconvincing flavors of licorice, rhubarb and camphor, along with an unexpected and jarring note of tropical fruit. This straightforward midweight is fairly juicy, even a bit tart, and the tannins are ripe and soft. Finishes with a note that reminded me of lapsang souchong tea. |
