Community Tasting Note

platpeeps Likes this wine:

Friday, April 19, 2024 - Initially tasted when double-decanted at around 5pm, this came across as warm and cuddly, with spicy and sweet kirsch cherry fruit maybe with a hint of liquorice and tar. At the time I felt it should have a little more structure and lift.
The wine, though, was actually consumed at a local restaurant, Tropea, at around 10pm that same evening, some 5 hours later, and what a transformation. Smooth, rounded and svelte with lifted black cherry fruit and subtle grainy tannins. The mouthfeel, structure and length of finish were utterly superb, and quite frankly, this had metamorphosised into an amazing wine. Wonderful. CHP 94 pts
