Winery review:
The 2018 Pessimist is inky and dark aubergine in color. A
powerhouse vintage with a plethora fruit showcasing blueberry, boysenberry,
plum and strawberry. Smoky notes of truffle and roasted coffee are accompanied
by accents of floral consisting of lavender and lilac, highlighted by
underlying nuances of buttered toast, vanilla, and a breath of cool
wintergreen. A veritable cascade of juicy berries, red cherries and huckleberries
flood the palate while a river of lush fruit flavors overflow its banks.
Voluptuous and robust while tempered with grace and elegance; a true gentle
giant. The purity of fruit is elevated by its silky texture and hints of kirsch
and cassis, olive and fennel. This wine displays a well- rounded and balanced
finish that offers essences of blueberry and cranberry with prodigious
persistence.
My review:
It is beautiful Dark red wine. Notes of plum
and vanilla. It has a very rich texture, a very strong cherry flavour. I like
it very much and would buy it again. A pessimist is never disappointed!
