Thursday, March 28, 2024 - Opened at Noble Rot in Mayfair, this bottle presented itself as tremendous value on the wine list. This wine was all about the nose; something I've found myself saying more and more often as of late (and I think there's a note that usually gives it away for me!). Boasting qualities of smoke, cranberries, light cedar wood, licorice, menthol, herbs and a tremendous dark chocolate scent, I found myself reaching to smell the wine and putting the glass down, garnering satisfaction simply from its complex aromatic structure. The palate was clearly advanced as hints of fruit emerged through redcurrants in the upfront, but that quickly transitioned to iron and tobacco in the mid-palate before notes of oak, bell pepper and spices dominated a short finish.
