about RegionTASTING NOTES
—
Simon Tam
Sweet fruit. Fresh on the palate, balanced tannins and lingering grape skin.
—
Janet Wang
Dark fruits, dried herbs, a touch of green pepper on the finish. Mid-palate and finish a little thin.
—
Jeremy Stockman
Big oaky style with drying, powerful tannins. Lots of fruit, a touch jammy. Commercial.
—
David Xing
A hint of cooked fruit, generally fresh. High, chewy tannins, good intensity. A quite long finish, warm and bold.
