Thank you Laithwaites for our #gifted wine advent calendar- we’re having so much fun counting down the days to Christmas 🙌

This 2018 Dealu Nucului cab sauv is…

👅 smoky, tart plum, full bodied, dry sharp tannins

All my opinions are based on my own taste buds. Life’s too short to drink anything but what you enjoy.

My first wine from Moldova, really impressive and can see why it’s so popular at Laithwaites. Super smooth with subtle spice and dark fruit. Was great with BBQ

I tried the 2015 vintage and was impressed. Smooth and complex with low tannins.
