85/100 45

Supple, spicy wine with an appealing soft texture and Rhone-like flavours that include pepper, plum, wildflowers and toasty oak. It has sweeter fruit than a southern Rhone red, making it easy to appreciate with or without food.

Tasted: Jul 2007   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $30 (~USD $23)
