Sunday, April 14, 2024 - Eyes Wide Shut - Day 2 (A quiet place): Nose: Fresh red fruits, dried stones, and a spiced and prickly forest floor.
Palate: Similar on the plate, completely different than the 09. Crazy how much younger this seems. Fresh red fruits and fresh minerals. Clean minerals and the fresh fruits linger on the finish. Nicely fruited steeped tea on the the finish as well.
Preferred the fresh youthfulness of this over the '09. Did not drink like there was only a year's difference in age, but more like 8-10 years of difference. The '09 was an old soul, this '10 is a young soul.
