Claymore Losing my Religion Montepulciano 2022

 First up, we have a Riesling called ‘God is a DJ’, and then this red dubbed ‘Losing my Religion’. Not sure you could make that up. A fine Clare Valley Montepulciano, which is cracking value. Opaque purple, this is a lovely plush style with notes of plums, purple fruits, licorice, cherry and chocolate. The palate is all mocha, coffee beans, chocolate and cocoa powder, with a fine line of acidity, just below, running the length supported by sleek tannins and a very long finish. Enjoy over the next four to six years. Great value.
