Oldfield Reserve Merlot 2011

- 92 points -

"It offers alluring aromas of plum cake, exotic spices such as cumin, clove and pepper that are layered with bittersweet chocolate, black raspberry, vanilla and wild herbs. Rather than laying all its cards on the table, this wine is coy. Expect restraint and yet generous fruit. It is smooth, elegant and completely serious. Excellent balance – a wine that has the cellar potential of a decade yet is entirely ready to drink now."

Daenna Van Mulligan, October 2014


About Wine Scores

What is a wine score and how do wine reviewers (I don’t refer to myself as a wine critic, I review wine, I don't criticize it) decide on that score?
A wine score is a numerical rating wine reviewers give to a wine based on a series of elements. Every wine reviewer (or wine critic) has their own method of getting to a conclusive number even if they use similar guidelines to one another.
