Commentary

 

Tasted by Andreas Larsson

 

Elvi Wines - Adar 2008 - Tasted by the Best Sommelier in the World Andreas Larsson. Liquorice,

 

Anise Seed, Dried Fruit Red wine with a slightly developed colour here, ruby with slightly tawny towards

 

the rim. The nose is mature, showing quite a lot of maturity here. Some dried fruit notes; like prune, that

 

dried spices like anise seed, caraway and dried fruit. The palate has a medium weight, slightly more than

 

mid-weight. Tannins have rounded off. It starts out with those spicy notes particularly of liquorice and anise

 

seed, then we have those dried fruity flavours predominately like prune and fig. It is a medium towards

 

long finish with spicy flavours. This certainly has a lot of evolution, it is a wine ready to drink

 

now, shouldn't be kept more.
