Tasting Notes
Veritas 2003 - Gold
89 points - Wine Spectator of 30 June 2004
A very attractive spicy nose with aromas of coffee and moccha accompanied by a full-bodied and well-balanced palate. Great concentration of fruit – a truly magnificent wine that seduces the palate through its finesse and sheer opulence.
Ageing Potential
