Tuesday, October 29, 2013 - Interesting showing for this bottle. At first sip this was interesting, yet after minutes, it recoiled into a shell shocked state. I came back about 30 min later and it had already blossomed.

Complex nose of red fruits, tea, thyme, white flowers, and jasmine. Light in the mouth with a slightly sappy quality to the fruit. A crushed shell like minerality in the mouth. A wine that makes you think. Lacking some acid, but not flabby. I have no doubt that this will be fantastic in some years time, but worth a look now if you're unsure what AT is all about.

While this was good, I much prefer the ceras as this point.
