Sanguis Verve 2012
One of the most supremely hedonistic red wines we’ve sampled in the past year, this superstar features a unique of intense, yet refined, character. This Grenache blend is reminiscent of the highest rated Gigondas from Chateau St. Cosme (in the best vintages) as it’s simply irresistible now and will tantalize your palate for years to come. A lavish mouthfeel with opulent plum and ultra-ripe cherry are balanced with asian spice, dark chocolate, blueberry jam and Bing cherries. Cashmere-like texture, with an intensity on the palate rarely found, this is oppulence at it’s best.
