2019 Nine Popes

$104.90

Lovely deep colour. Nice bright crimson edge to the colour. Opens on nose with a delightful spicy licorice all sorts amalgam of sweet perfume and spice, although 50% new oak was used, it remains in the background as a support to the exotic aromatics. Licorice and meat stock flavours lead into a plush rounded structure, with an excellent volume of finely wrought tannins to help shepherd this wine many years into the future.

Much like the great Grenache wines of the world, this wine will reward patient cellaring of 25+ years. The complex delicacy of the blend will elegantly complement duck, quail and other rich dishes.
