TASTING NOTE
St Martinus Olivier 2019
red wine
The wine is well made with an atypical character for a Dutch wine. A lot of ripe fruit and hints of roses, combined with secondary aromas like cedar wood, leather and some black olives. An exciting blend with a good bite! Since the cedar wood is not yet completely integrated, we expect the wine will improve by a few years of further ageing.
