Community Tasting Notes 6

    January 21, 2024 - Red berries with raspberry and strawberry in the forefront. A light smoky tone with earth and pepper. Juicy and very tasty and refreshing. No noticeable tannins and a well-balanced and easy-drinking wine with a freshness that pairs perfectly with a chicken dish.

    June 21, 2023 - Fabulous, rich and ripe expression of a warm microclimate in Bannockburn . Tosteeboak, ripe and refined black cherry fruit, savoury, long, involving and supple. This has great depth, but is still quite young, even if it is delicious right now. Superb fine tannic structure, this will absolutely repay cellaring. 2021 is an excellent vintage for Felton Road, and the Cornish Point bottling certainly feels more opulent, and a step above the outstanding Bannockburn bottling.

  • NickBurwood Likes this wine:

    June 9, 2023 - BYOB lunch in The Spectator boardroom hosted by Jonathan Ray (The Spectator's drinks editor). Limited notes in the main!
    Gross infanticide! Herb and dry spice hints and a very tight cherry core with sour cherry PN finish. But essentially closed for business!
    2027 onwards. Potential 92+ wine.

    February 17, 2023 - 醒酒两个小时,淡紫红色,闻香有些许烟熏,花香,覆盆子一类红果,水果糖和吐司的味道,香气很直接。入口酸度中高,单宁紧致,有些许颗粒感,酒液咸,收口微甜,面包吐司面包,果梗,红果混合着黑色水果的香气,后段回苦,余味以水果糖香气为主。整体表现比较简单,缺乏深度,酒体不够紧致,喝起来不太融合,可能是年份太新的关系,没有进入适饮期。
