Colgin, Cariad Vintage:2012 a multidimensional core and aThe highlight among these 2015s, the Cariad is a total knock out. Dark, vibrant and powerful in the glass, the 2015 offers notable energy to balance the bold flavors of the year. In this vintage, the Cariad has quite a bit more Franc than is typically the case, a decision that has paid off beautifully. I very much like the sense of energy here. Antonio Galloni
