Sandeman, Vau Vintage Vintage:2000 The palate is wonderfully complexMedium ruby. Sexy, superripe aromas of grapey dark fruits, mocha, maple syrup and roasted nuts. Very sweet, dense and full, with a glyceral texture and superripe, concentrated, sappy flavors of black raspberry and cherry liqueur. Pliant and approachable but with attractive framing acidity and solid spine. Finishes with fine, dusty tannins and excellent persistence; superripe notes of crystallized berries along with a hint of minty austerity. Stephen
