Note di degustazione
Inky, bright-rimmed violet. Expansive, intensely perfumed aromas of ripe black and blue fruit preserves, incense, espresso, cola and potpourri. Stains the palate with alluringly sweet, smoke- and spice-laced blueberry, cherry-vanilla, fruitcake and floral pastille flavors that show superb depth and uncanny energy as well. Closes with outstanding tenacity and rounded tannins that frame repeating blue fruit and floral notes.

Everything about Standish's 2016 The Relic Shiraz-Viognier is remarkable, starting with the ridiculous color. It's so dark, so purple, so vibrant. Then the nose boasts soaring florals and stone fruits, while the palate delivers fresh blueberries and dried spices. It's full-bodied but creamy-textured, with supple tannins and concentrated fruit that lingers on the plush finish. Just awesome stuff.
