Grape Variety

Corniva

Producer

Monte Castelon

Delicate and elegant with a complex nose of red fruit (strawberry, raspberry, cranberry) allied to black fruit (plum, cherry, mulberry) floral notes (hawthorn, rose) and spice (liquorice and cedar) from 6 months’ ageing in 2nd and 3rd fill French barriques. Acidity and tannins are perfectly judged and this rolls on and on in the mouth; it’s classically proportioned and delicious. 2023-2027–MP
