Legacy Red Wine 2001
Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California, United StatesImpressive smoky, peppery, vanilla nose spiked with spicy, cedar, licorice, clove, black olive and cassis jam aromas. Fine and much welcomed complexity. Rich, round, dry, elegant style but quite intense with grainy tannins. Smoky, vanilla, chocolate, licorice, spicy blackberry jam, cassis, minty cedar flavours. Long and warm this will need 3-5 years to soften. A serious Legacy from an excellent year.Tasted: 26 March 2005Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $105.00 | 750ml | Speculative - Vinterra Wine Merchants |
