Tony Love, Wine with Tony Love
3 Jan 20184.5 StarsRecently judged highly in a major independent comp, this youthful, medium-bodied wine gives nothing away in its heady swirl of vibrant aromatics and flavours, the fruit in perfectly sweet plum and cherry pitch, juicy and lively with bright acidity echoing those initial nasal impressions. Delicate woodiness and spice adds a depth to softer tannins in the finish. One of the best $20 wines -
Tony Love, Tempranillo – a Spanish star on the rise
3 Jan 20184.5 StarsRecently judged highly in a major independent comp, this youthful, medium-bodied wine gives nothing away in its heady swirl of vibrant aromatics and flavours, the fruit in perfectly sweet plum and cherry pitch, juicy and lively with bright acidity echoing those initial nasal impressions. Delicate woodiness and spice adds a depth to softer, touchy-feely tannins in the finish. What can you say — it’s a direct hit, and one of the best $20 wines in town. Good discount prices around as well. -
Campbell Mattinson,
4 Jan 201886 PointsTempranillo from the Clare Valley and McLaren Vale regions. Soft, ripe and juicy with fruit. Not a rough edge in sight. Berries aplenty, sweet-edged but with dry spice and musky choc-vanilla notes hovering. Light-ish but there’s enough here. It’s certainly easy to drink.
