Kilikanoon Baudinet Blend Grenache/Shiraz/Mataro 2021

Richly ripe and beautifully lifted, showing dark berry, warm spice, rich floral, clove, and hazelnut aromas, followed by a wonderfully weighted palate offering generous mouthfeel and velvety texture. It’s splendidly framed by layers of silky tannins, making it flavoursome and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2036. Score – 95. (Sam Kim, wineorbit.co.nz, Jan. 2025)
