sherry-like style

richly layered wine

indeed so much so that this has an almost tannic quality to the racy and linear finish

the Vénus graces the palate with exquisite finesse

Ox Hardy, 1891 Ancestor Vines other_regions sherry-like styleWarm spiced bread, blackcurrants, tarry, savory notes, black cherries and redder toned plums and berries abound. This is a well of rich fruit. The palate has a soulful feel, winding out layers and layers of smooth, fine and dense tannin in effortless style. Builds and builds with a smooth ascent into a very long, dark plum flavored finish. From a small plot of vines planted in 1891, this is a piece of vinous treasure. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
