Information about "Waterford The Jem 2017"

Deep ruby with a shadowy garnet rim, the Waterford The Jem enchants the senses with an alluringly complex bouquet of dark cherries, supple leather, dark cocoa beans, ripe blackberries, and spicy clove, underscored by subtle hints of black pepper and charcoal. This masterful wine encapsulates stunning finesse and remarkable fruit purity, revealing silky cherry nuances and warm spices in its seemingly endless finish.
Waterford The Jem embodies the complete philosophy of the Waterford estate, showcasing the diversity of its myriad grape varieties. Its captivating aromas of fresh fruits and wild spices, along with its warmth and complexity, are beautifully complemented by well-integrated tannins. The elegantly persistent finish is classically dry, leaving nothing to be desired.
