An exciting cherry color! Raspberry and blueberry, with a smoky undertone on the nose. A mouth of red apple, cracked pepper, earth and diffused powdery tannins. Your new affable friend that opens up to reveal its intriguing complexity.
94 Tasting Panel Though this blending grape mostly planted in the Mediterranean doesn't have a lofty worldwide reputation, its capacity for producing elegant varietal reds made it a darling among South Africans about a decade ago. This is a terrific example at a great price. Vibrant notes of cherry and raspberry are irresistible (go ahead and try), with wonderfully balanced acidity and light tannins. Excellent anytime but ideal with a light chill during summer.
90 JamesSuckling.com A refreshing and fruity red that has notes of raspberries, violets and strawberries on the nose, as well as citrus peel. It’s medium-bodied and fresh with crunchy tannins. Sustainable.
