Community Tasting Note

trumpet60201 Likes this wine: 95 points
October 16, 2022 - Medium bodied wine with a complex nose of black currants, blackberries, some very subtle plummy/blueberry notes, five spice, white pepper, chocolate, cigar box, roses, violets, and very well integrated elegant oak (toast and praline). On the palate, a nice medium-full mouthfeel, loads of incredibly fresh and delicious fruit, perfect acidity, very fine elegant ripe tannins, and impeccable balance (13% abv). There is excellent persistence on the very long finish. It drinks beautifully already, but should just gain complexity with time. 95+
