The complexity of the aromas is impressive with flowers, black currants, raspberries, and peaches. Full bodied, yet highly refined and polished with impeccable texture and beauty. The length is wonderful. This is a testament to the balance, harmony and transparency in a great red.”
Suckling called the 2017 vintage a wine “Fantastic aromas of black currants and other dark fruit with crushed stone, iron and oysters, following a full body that shows incredible energy and depth, offering ripe yet fresh fruit, along with bright herbs and earth. . Precision and balance of the intensity of the vintage. In layers. Perhaps the best Don Melchor ever made so far."
