RAM’S LEAP MERLOT WESTERN PLAINS 2007 13%
VISUAL ANALYSIS: limpid, red ruby and quite flowing.
OLFACTORY ANALYSIS: wild strawberries, grass and wild flowers.
GUSTATIVE ANALYSIS: the first sensation is the astringency of the tannins, the second one the alcoholic dryness and later a well structure. The final is chocolate flavoured. The gustative aromatic persistence is about 4/5 seconds.
WINE-FOOD COMBINATION: Paprika chicken legs with risi bisi
- The succulence of the chicken legs is counterbalancing the astringency note of the tannin
- The salivation of the sauce is countervailing the alcoholic dryness of the wine
- The structure of the recipe is equalizing the structure of the wine
- The olfactory-gustative persistence of the recipe is matching to the intense aromatic persistence of the wine
PRICE-QUALITY RELATION: great approximately 10,00 AUD
