Community Tasting Note

86 Points

Wednesday, August 7, 2013 - At the Terraneo festival. Hah, it was damn nice to get to sample some really good, rare even (outside of the Šibenik area) stuff at a music festival, while everywhere else they put Ribar or such other crap... It was nice to relax a little with a glass of this with Emiliana Torrini performing in the background. :) Anyway, not exactly the best of conditions, but good enough, with as proper glass (well, plastic-ware) as is possible there. Dark ruby body I guess. A blast of fruitiness in the aroma berries, even light notes of raisins, lovely. Didn't go into further details. Soooooft creamy taste, mild berries, ending with just a touch of tartness in the end. Again, lovely stuff, showing some of the higher than expected potential of the grape. I hope to revisit it in calmer surroundings for a more detailed tasting (as much as an amateur like me can provide), for now, it's an 86 for me.
