Bt (750ml)
Stock Location: HK
Tasting note
Lighter in color this year, the 2021 Old Vine Series Soldaat is brilliant with a fleshy, ripe, crunchy red fruit essence that sways with an aroma of dusty cherry blossom. Medium-bodied and with 13% alcohol, the palate is fresh yet possesses a nervous energy that uncoils as the wine sits on the palate before revealing a delightful tannic grip. The Grenache concludes with a fine, floral finish and will need additional time in the bottle to come together but will drink fantastically over the next 12- 14 years. Just give it some time, and your patience will be rewarded.
Score: 94
