馬德里格酒莊珍藏十四行詩紅葡萄酒

點擊次數：2743

Dry, smooth and delicious, a flashy wine that tastes complex. Although there are strong tannins, there’s a drink-me-now richness to blackberries, blueberries, chocolate and oak. Decant for an hour or two, and enjoy.——S.H.(4/1/2012)—— 90

Made in the modern cult style, this wine is soft, oaky and fruity. It shows waves of blackberries, currants, cherries, mocha, smoky sandalwood and cinnamon spice, wrapped into smooth, luxurious tannins. Seems a bit anonymous, but very elegant. Drink now–2011.——S.H.(12/1/2009)—— 88

Loamy earth, dried currant, sage and leathery scents are delivered in a full-bodied, well-proportioned style that ends with dry mineral, pebble and earth notes. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now through 2013. 383 cases made. -JL

There’s a good wine in here that wants to get out, but it will take some time. Even though this Bordeaux blend is more than four years old, it’s still stiff in tannins, with a dry, withering mouthfeel. But there’s a solid core of black currants. Give it until 2010, at least.——S.H.(4/1/2009)—— 91
