Stonyridge Larose 2013 CASE 750ml
Only
$1,690.00
The 2013 vintage is considered a particularly powerful and concentrated wine, with the long, dry growing season on Waiheke Island contributing to its quality.
Aromatics: The nose is intense, with powerful and complex notes. Primary fruit aromas of violets, blackcurrant, dark plum, and berries sit over more powerful secondary notes. You may also find scents of pipe tobacco, liquorice, and espresso.
Palate: The initial impression is a massive, ripe tannin structure with high concentration. This is balanced by fresh acidity that keeps the palate focused and precise. The tannins are described as creamy, textural, and muscular, but not brutal.
Flavours: The palate reflects the aromatics, with pure, concentrated flavours of dense dark plum, berries, and spices. Critics also note savoury tapenade, black cherry, figs, and coffee.
Finish: It has a mellow and well-integrated finish that is very long and even, with impressive length and persistence.
