Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes

"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2007 Hill of Grace has a dusty earth and warm mulberry character with touches of iodine, cinnamon stick, sage, bacon and aniseed. The phenolics are a little unresolved, but this is still a superb wine with medium levels of chewy tannins, balanced acid and just enough spicy fruit holding on through the long finish." Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Sweetness

All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab. 

Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
