Community Tasting Note

henrygjeffreys Likes this wine:

Saturday, February 13, 2021 - Deep red colour, lots of fading at the rim.
The nose has gone even more spicy since my last bottle in 2019: cloves, cinnamon , cardamom and menthol notes. Underneath stewed fruit and a touch of green pepper.
On the palate firm tannin still but it’s really opening up, more cooked fruit and spice with a fresh acidity.
Really good with bloody roast beef.
To be honest this is probably maturing faster than it should because of my last flat’s less than perfect storage conditions .
I love the way these wines start off all medoc like and as they mature get increasingly spicy and southern. Great fun.
