“A beautiful mesh of hyper-fine grained tannins which will be scaffold for many years to come.” 95 Points | Regan Drew | Vino Notebook – Tapanappa Whalebone Cabernets Merlot Franc 2021

Review Date: Jul 2025

Deep garnet with a soft velvet rim. Aromas complex and calm: rose petals, drinking cocoa and cassis with blueberries and raspberries, blood plum, new leather, cedar, a small amount of rosemary (leaf and flower), a touch of vanilla, graphite and black tea. There’s an ancient quality to the wine, evoking the soils that have given it life. Sumptuous dark fruit, mid-weight elegance and with a beautiful mesh of hyper-fine grained tannins which will be scaffold for many years to come. Reviewed July 2025.
