Tasting Notes:
“Sporting a deep purple-black colour, the 2020 Taillefer leaps from the glass with exuberant notes of black cherry preserves, boysenberries and prunes, plus wafts of camphor, cardamom and espresso with a touch of bouquet garni. The medium to full-bodied palate has lovely freshness lifting all that rich, black fruit, supported by grainy tannins and finishing on a lingering savoury note.” Score: 90-92 - Lisa Perrotti-Brown for Robert Parker, RobertParker.com, May 2020.
Serving Suggestions:
Pairs well with red meat, charcuterie and cheese.
