Cute little piccolo in our gifted wine advent calendar from Laithwaites (thank you!).

It’s full bodied and dry with notes of black currant, aniseed and spices. Yummy choice for red wine drinking by the Christmas tree 🎄

Berry notes but not too fruity. Distinctive.

First taste is an explosion of fruit; big. Then the tanins kick in and it's all downhill from there. 2013 vintage so probably needed another few years on the rack. Having said that, I've had much worse.
