Sunday, April 14, 2024 - Eyes Wide Shut - Day 2 (A quiet place): Nose: Quiet and soft red fruits, white flowers, and wet mulch.
Palate: Brooding, ripe, dark red fruits, dried and bitter minerals, graphite and wet soil on the finish with some drying tannin.
So generous on the palate, but this might've needed some time to really shine (I'm like a song on repeat right now). The tannin seemed to have indicated that there was plenty underneath all that fruit that is waiting to surface. Take score with a grain of salt.
