The balsamic notes are really starting to open up here in the 2009 Lupicaia

Broad and welcoming on the nose – with the Pinot Gris most obvious

energetic and beautifully persistent finish

more black than red

Finca Allende, Aurus Size:6x750ml The balsamic notes are reallyThe 1996 Aurus has a rustic, leathery bouquet that is animally and feral. The palate is medium bodied with light, slightly disjointed tannins, while the fruit seems to have ebbed away towards the simple finish. Drink now. Commencing with the Allende Blanc, I was impressed by how well this ages. Predominantly Viura with a higher percentage of Malvasia in older vintages, it develops a fine waxy texture and almost dried Barsac like personality.
