Tasting Notes
Opaque in the glass, basically squid ink save for the slightest hint of magenta around the rim. Meaty and boisterous, this wine initially overpowers the glass with black and blue fruit before flowering into a ripe, unctuous, kaleidoscopic bouquet of boysenberry jam, cherry kirsch, red rock, bouquet garni and powdery purple florals underpinned with graham cracker and black forest cake. The entry is ripe and unctuous as well with rich, velvety blackberry compote and black forest cake notes framed by racy, red rock coated, palate staining tannins that unfurl waves of blueberry, cassis and chocolate kissed with beautifully integrated oak in an epic finish that never seems to end.
Lipsmacking, rich, ripe and opulent, Lot 12 is a hedonistic yet beautifully balanced wine, a classic “iron fist in a velvet glove” masterpiece, and a mind-blowing value.
