“The Thorn-Clarke Shotfire Quartage Red 2014 is a lush red wine blend of five varietals traditionally found in the Bordeaux region of France. Deep red with brick hues, this wine shows lifted berry, cinnamon, nutmeg, and dried oregano aromas. The palate doesn’t disappoint, with a multitude of flavors melding together, starting with red berries and anise. On release, the tannins for the fruit and oak are firm and long, and the generosity of fruit is balanced by an elegance provided by natural acidity. This red wine is full-bodied and complete.”
