Jancis Robinson Julia Harding - 01 Dec 18
100% whole bunch. Tank sample. Deep cherry red. Dark-red fruit. Deep and rich, full of spicy fruit and long and fresh on the finish. Lively and juicy. Stems can give an impression of underripeness or menthol early on, says Potel, but round out later. ‘Perfect for climate change.’ (JH)
