Tasting Notes
Firm and flavorful, a bit muddled but has blackberry, herb, earth and currant flavors. Tannins wrap around the finish. Needs cellaring. Best from 2002 through 2010. 725 cases imported.
-85 pts by Wine Spectator
Dark, deep red-purple; the bouquet is as concentrated and rich as one would expect, with a mix of blackberry and blackcurrant fruit; ample but not excessive oak. The palate is immensely powerful and concentrated, precisely as one would expect from Riddoch in a vintage such as ’96, with a full panoply of dark, black fruit flavours, tannin and oak.
