NV Berry Brothers Crusted 2004
Posted: 00:06 Sat 10 Dec 2011
Sourced from Dow. Pale red in colour, 30% opaque and with a surprising amount of sediment floating in the glass. Youthful fruit, but softened by a little age on the nose. Slightly aggressive entry, with a touch of harsh acidity and light fruit. Strawberries on the finish. An early drinking wine. 84/100.
