Matt’s review: Gorgeous fragrant bouquet with dried fruit, clove, smoked bacon, sous bois, and graphite on the nose. Beautifully balanced, it’s elegant with a remarkably supple texture. The palate shows layers of dark fruit, figs, plum, and spice with a long and inviting finish. An exceptional wine with terrific structure making it ideally suited for enjoyment now and will cellar beautifully over the next 5+ years. Enjoy with Leitao (suckling pig), Espetada (grilled beef kebabs), or Chourico (smoked sausage), to name a few top picks. A buy by the case wine that offers exceptional value! Look for it in the October 14 2017 Vintages release at LCBO. Tasted July 2017. 92+ points. Matt Steeves – www.quercusvino.ca
