Tasting Notes

Whereas most of the Anselma wines are dominated by dark fruit, this Bussia leans a lot more towards red fruits, especially strawberries. The palate is swamped by a deluge of fruit which is then put to bed by a huge tannic structure that kicks in on the mid-palate. The wine tantalisingly gives you a glimpse of what you're in for but then shuts down and reminds you to be patient. This will need lots of time but will be magnificent.
