Crown Royal Special Reserve Old Bottling (750ml) Rio Grande do Sul 4% Petit VerdotThis bottling is no longer produced. The Crown Royal Reserve became it's replacement Nose Allspice, light cooked fruit, green plum, sour cherry, pomegranate, apple skin, a little hint of musk. Ripe tropical fruits. Rich and layered. Palate As sweet as the nose suggests, but this has an extra grip and acidic kick to add interest and structure. Better without water, but well balanced. Finish Firm mix of fruit and oak. Comment This has better balance
