@winedrinker.bsky.socialGlad to see you got it at the reduced price Simon - I bought 12 and, after trying (and reviewing) one, I've decided to give them a bit more bottle age before re-sampling: cambridgewineblogger.substack.com/p/de-bortoli...

Seductive and intensely aromatic, it's laced with black cherry, strawberry and roses. Tannins moderated nicely, but there's grip. #wine
