Merchant's description
"A Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend, Almaviva 2017 scored a rare 100 points – Almaviva’s second perfect score, following the 2015 vintage – from James Suckling, who described it as “full-bodied, tight and chewy” with “wild and exotic” aromas of blackberry leaves, iodine, mussel shells and earth. It’s structured and powerful. Dense and very, very deep." - Wine of the Decade, James Suckling
