De Toren Fusion V 2015

RATINGS Vivino: 4.4 | Tim Atkin: 94 points | Platter's: 4.5 stars TASTING NOTES 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Cabernet Franc, 13% Malbec, 10% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot The iconic Left Bank-based blend from De Toren, Fusion V is meticulously crafted from Bordeaux’s ‘Noble Five’ varietals and, with its complex flavours of liquorice, black cherry, cedar and dark berries, it offers a stylish departure for sophisticated wine tastes. Soft as spun silk, with a lingering hint of sweet fruit on the back palate, this is a wine that will only improve with age, and should last 20 years. Serve at the optimal 15-18°C temperature.
