L'AVENTURE Red Wine 'Optimus Estate' 2014

Sourced from the L’Aventure Estate Vineyard, the 2014 ‘Optimus Estate’ Red is an outstanding blend of 42% Syrah, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Petit Verdot which was aged for 14 months in 60% new French oak. This begins with an intense bouquet of black cherries, rose petals, black olive tapenade and crème de cassis. Inky and brooding, with a dense mouthfeel, the wine delivers rich flavors reminiscent of sweet pipe tobacco, black raspberry liquor, candied black cherry, and suggestions of anise. Inviting and plush, this wine will be best enjoyed over the next decade. (Best 2017-2026) - September, 2017 (OB)
