dry and clean finish that has an almost tannic texture

warm earth and a hint of anise that merge into rich

This is a focused effort that exhibits controlled power and a lovely sense of underlying tension

Silver Heights, Emma's Reserve Vintage:2017 dry and clean finish thatFull bottle a heavy 1,645 g. 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Merlot. Emma Gao's top red. Luscious, subtle mature ruby. Lightly resinous nose and very pleasing, ripe, bordeaux blend nose. Clean and surprisingly fresh for a 15% wine, with light leafiness. Sweet start, no shortage of fresh acidity, this is really very creditable. Just the sort of wine to give to people doubtful about whether China can produce decent wine. Long and very respectable indeed.
