    failla的Syrah和pinot的风格类似。喝到最后一次差不多。

    November 22, 2020 - Lovely and drinking beautifully now. Even has a few more years to go I think. Beautiful blend of fruits and cola on the nose, lingering dark fruits on the mid palate, with cola and cocoa - and nicely integrated tannins - in the finish. A distinctive Pinot and beautifully paired with a slightly spicy, grilled pork tenderloin.

    The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells and taste like strawberry, raspberry, guava, honeydew, passion fruit, papaya, orange blossom and peach blossom. The body is light. The wine has juicy texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has low acidity.

Day 2 it had mellowed without losing ANY of the brightness and character. Became more harmonious and seductive, like a friend who stays the night and gets comfortable, I guess.
