Community Tasting Note

Screwcaps Does not like this wine:

Saturday, February 4, 2023 - A note on the 2020, pop and pour.

Medium purple. Heady, liquorice and dark fruited nose.

Full bodied, high glycerol and alcohol.

Crunchy dark fruit, orange juice added acid. Finishes crunchy , thin flavoured, with heat and a little menthol.

This is not for me. Less than good. Pretty label, but this is more for getting the party started than conversation.

A very commercial wine. Sweet, acidic, high alcohol, lack of tannin, and thin flavoured. Hard to enjoy.

30mins later...
Once the alcohol numbs a little, a meaty peppery chew fills the finish. Hard acid edges meet breathy menthol though the finish.

This has such an alcohol burn through the finish. I tried to like it.
