Throatable. That’s the word. This Orbis Wines Trousseau is built for slurping.
Red cherries, sour cherries, red plums and raspberry rope tumble across the palate, with a lick of licorice root adding a savoury edge. A fine wave of black pepper and earthy spice gradually builds momentum, bringing extra interest without disturbing the wine’s juicy, medium-bodied frame. Then comes the length. It just keeps going, drawing you back for another sip and delivering plenty of moreishness along the way. Give it a little chill and the sessional appeal goes through the roof. Picnic wine, long day at work salvation, park piss, whatever you want to call it, this is made for relaxed drinking. Run at this. It’s a slurpable delight.
