2022 Kopke Sao Luiz

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Attractive floral perfumed nose. Sweet fruit slides smoothly onto the palate, with the acidity and soft tannins coming into view on the mid-palate. Nicely structured, nicely balanced. The acidity builds to a crescendo, forcing the wine to be swallowed - but that just reveals a lovely, long and delightful ripe blackcurrant finish. The fruit on this wine is ripe, sweet, but perfectly balanced. Day 3. 89-91/100. Tasted 23-Aug-2024.
