Community Tasting Note

  • Tony Molester Likes this wine:

    September 13, 2021 - Single piece cork, no sign of seepage, minimal saturation.
    Slight cloudiness at the bottom of the bottle.

    This is the wine that i tasted with my then girlfriend, now wife, on our first date.
    I purchased a few of these on the night and tucked them away wondering what the future would hold.

    Fast forward almost 8 years later.
    We just made our first house purchase offer and cracked this one just a few days ago.
    The wine has aged splendidly, just as i suspected. The impression of slight sweetness gets more convincing as the wine warms to room temperature. We've noticed this more on later vintages. The savoury, floral dichotomy in this wine still captivates me and i stand by my chance meetings of both this wine and my now wife.

    I have a slight preference for the Radikon Oslavje with a decade of age. Both are quite compelling wines.

    Happy days
    Drink up, or hold short term. Limited upside anticipated.
