Darrell Lea Raspberry Liquorice Twists on the nose, with hints of cherry cola and vanilla. Red fruit with a tarry undercurrent on the palate, plus bright acid and driving tannins. Enjoying this. — 7 years ago

Agree with Craig's review from Oct 2016. Still drinking well in July 2017. Very smooth wine matching well with pork and chicken with soy/sesame/garlic/ginger marinade. — 8 years ago

Notes of cherry, raspberry, strawberry, violet, yogurt and subtle banana on the nose. The pallet presents the same characteristics with some potting soil and red licorice (Darrell Lea Australian Strawberry Licorice not Redvine). Good quality, dry, high acid, low tannin, light body and a medium finish. — 6 years ago

Vineyard situated in several parts of Chateauneuf-du-Pape called Lea Saintes Vierges, La Font du Pape and La Crau Ouest. On the label we honor Jean XXII.

As well, he planted the papal vineyards and ordered to build a new castle (chateau neuf) in the place that should become Chateauneuf-du-Pape.
