Community Tasting Notes 5

  • rosuoter Likes this wine:

    February 13, 2022 - PnP. This is a New World wine with a very distinctive Old World touch that is in a very good place, but there is no rush to open it now. Old leather, iodine, garrique herbs, scorched earth, a touch of its former fruitiness on the nose. Very concentrated on the palate with smooth tannins and good acidity. Sort of well-aged CdP on steroids. Enjoy it during the next 7-10 years.

    February 25, 2014 - Noticeable nose of morning glory and blueberries. The palate was quite tight with red fruits, early spring flowers with a touch of spice. Noticeable acidity.
