93pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2020 Fusion V is a skillfully crafted blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, 13% Malbec, 12% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot, boasting a 14.5% alcohol content. The wine reveals a dusty red-fruit profile mixed with mineral, pencil lead, graphite and dusty cherry undertones, enhancing its layered complexity. Medium to full-bodied, it is fresh, mineral-driven and complex, concluding with an earthy finesse and a mineral-laced finish. This wine would benefit from some additional time to mature, or it can be enjoyed now with food, enhancing its inherent qualities. Your patience will be rewarded.
Winemaker Notes
The iconic Left Bank-based blend from De Toren Fusion V is meticulously crafted from Bordeaux’s 'Noble Five' varietals and, with its complex flavors of licorice, black cherry, cedar and dark berries, it offers a stylish departure for sophisticated oenophilic 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.
With nuanced and complexed flavors, our renowned De Toren Fusion V wine pairs exceptionally well with perfectly tender grilled or roast lamb, with garlic, rosemary and a hint of honey lemon.
