FG67: Lovely red, 50% opacity. Nose of mint and red cherry. To taste dry, short, with liquorice.

[Alex Bridgeman]

4,800 cases made. Mature red in colour, 70% opaque. Limited scent on the nose. Balanced on entry, sweet fruit but a balanced acidity supporting the fruit. Develops beautifully with strawberry syrup. Hot aftertaste, but flavoursome finish with a delicious by cocoa and sour grapes. Well balanced wine. 86/100.
