Thursday, April 6, 2023 - Blind.Faith Season 6. Round four: Blind Pairs - £10 vs £100.
Tasted Blind. Big powerful nose, there’s definitely some vanilla and oak in there but also something floral and lifted. Feels very luxurious on the palate - good acidity and fine soft tannins. Lots of black fruit and a herby, ground coffee character on the long finish. Excellent stuff!
Notes on the blind tasting - I went for a Flaccianello, so not really close - but apparently lots of people guessed Super Tuscan so that makes me feel better, and very clearly the £100 wine of the pair.
