Refer to our catalog for an explanation of these abbreviations. Wine notes: "Waiting for the wine to open pays dividends, revealing exquisitely-defined brambly red fruit, incense and red roses. There is a very slight gamey element, not strong, but just lingers off-stage. The palate is medium-bodied with lace-like tannins that frame the otherworldly, pure, red fruit."(100pts VM) Provenance: King of the North: DRC Verticals Purchased on Release.
