Crux Corte 2022

Colour: Ruby Red. Nose: Black Fruit, pepper, anise, herbal spice, smoke, vanilla wood, spice mix. Palate: Full bodied, velvet tannin, balanced, pleasant acidity, long and persistent finish. Comments: Another dynamic wine that has an exceptional price/quality [ratio]. As far as I can find out, the wine is a blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Syrah, 10% Merlot and 10% Tempranillo. The wine is well made with much manual rather than machine handling. This would suffice as a great game wine as well as roast turkey, wild fowl, ossobuco. Definitely my wine for a great price/quality ratio purchase! Tasted twice. Score – 96. (chuckbyers.blogspot.com, Dec. 28, 2023)
