100 JL "The nose, with its truffle, tobacco, spice box, blackberry, cassis, cigar wrapper and dark cherry nose could not get any better. But the perfume is only part of the show. The main event is on the palate, where this exotic, decadent wine really shows its stuff. Fat, rich and intense, there is intense concentration, silky, tannins and a mouth filling, powerful, yet regal, supple finish that sticks with you for at least one full minute!" 96 RP "...aromas of blackberry, ripe cassis, freshly cracked black pepper and a touch of cedar. The palate reveals this wineâs potential with buckets of juicy, warm berry fruit seasoned with a smattering of earth and spice."
