This 2013 Ao Yun is a new star of China

which means they lost some 40% of the crop because of the frost

The Quinta do Noval Vintage 2003 has a gorgeous raisin

smoked meats and underbrush that continue to change and develop in the glass

Sociando Mallet Size:12x750ml This 2013 Ao Yun isThe 2010 Sociando Mallet has a well defined, pure bouquet with blackberry, bilberry and light estuarine scents that gently waft from the glass. The palate is medium bodied with grainy tannins, a fine bead of acidity and good weight. It just needs more complexity and terroir expression on the finish. Give this another two or three years. This is one wine where I have encountered better bottles. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 10 Year On Bordeaux
