May 3, 2022 - Surprising, with a solid acid backbone and fruit still hanging on. P&P, with a roast beef dinner. Still had enough zing to cut through the roast beef. However, has a lineal flat center, almost a synthetic undertone, which I somehow wonder if it got that from the synthetic cork they used?
As with an earlier review, also noted some brett, which was a pleasant addition, making this almost (almost) Rioja-like.
A great value when I purchased a case years ago, and glad a few bottles were hidden to try it again now.
Interesting, but not meant to hold this long. -
