December 21, 2021 - Tasted after 1 hour of air. Meh. I've tried the 2020s from Vincent, Evesham Wood, and Longplay. They are bad across the board. Rough on the palate. Masks over the fruit. Big hollow mid palate. No lift. Dead on the finish. Not sure how others gave this good scores.
Tasted again on day 2. There is some red berry fruit here and there is some floral notes and lift on the mid palate. Finish is still short though. Upgrading to 87.646 views
