Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes

Aromas here are dark and complex, including rooty/truffly/earthy scents with the red and black, delicious-smelling fruit. There’s a wealth of spice here in this quite high-toned nose. Palate is quickly fresh and fluid, showing sweet spices and red fruit. The very fine tannins become more upright later. An elegant and delicious wine, intense at the back. Supremely long example. Very fine wine. Bowes Wine original note

Sweetness Explained
Sweetness Explained

Sweetness

All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab. 

Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
