94 VM. "A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Tempranillo, mostly sourced from younger vines, the 2018 Double Lucky #8 shows a gorgeous bouquet of freshly tilled loamy soils, green olive tapenade, black tea and wild blackberry compote aromas that all meld in the glass. The palate is already beautifully evolved, showing tar, leather, black currant jelly, orange rind and umami tones that come together nicely. The salinity, weight and length of the wine add to the complexity." Owen Bargreen, Vinous.com, Oct 2021 |
