Silver Heights The Last Warrior Red Blend 2015

ChinaSilver Heights has a reputation for restraint and elegance among Chinese wines. The 60/40 cabernet sauvignon / merlot blend has a prominent minty, spicy, cedar thread that runs through the wine. The attack is balanced with rich, smoky, vanilla mixing with intense, ripe black fruits, strong spice and sweet cigar. There is some restraint and even minerality, but it could use less sweet fruit and more savoury tones to invite one to finish the bottle. It’s a simple, modern red that reminds me of a mid-range Washington State red blend.Tasted: 23 August 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
