Background: Back in 1985, around a friendly game of Liar’s Dice, Tim Murphy, Dale Goode and Dave Ready decided to make their love of fine wines official.
Tasting notes: A bouquet of strawberry and red plum with a hint of oak. This Zinfandel is juicy as ever with soft ripe tannins and fresh flavours of black raspberry, cherry and jam.
Thoughts from the Winemaker David Ready, JR: “Liar’s Dice is as juicy as ever! The soft tannins invite ripe, yet fresh flavours of black raspberry, black cherry, and blackberry jam. This is created to be a second glass Zin! If you have one, you are certain to have a second.”
Kendall Jackson Vintners R. Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
Region: U.S.A., California, Sonoma County
Grape variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Tasting notes: Aromas of lush black cherry, blackberry and cassis draw you in. Round, rich seamless tannins provide a robust backbone and supple mid-palate. Notes of cedar, vanilla and a hint of mocha linger on the finish.
Tasting notes: Beautifully integrated tropical flavours such as pineapple, mango, and papaya with citrus notes that explode in your mouth. These flavours delicately intertwine with aromas of vanilla and honey to create depth and balance throughout. A hint of toasted oak rounds out the long, lingering finish.
Tasting notes: Thick, tannic and herbal, this is an earthy and ethereal wine from the coast, aromatic in rose petal and forest floor. A notable backbone of acidity keeps it fresh and energetic in the glass amid a savoury landscape of salty, silky structure.
