Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Monday, February 26, 2024 - Intense purple and black fruits and berries, juniper, live herbs, berry and herbal liqueurs, pipe tobacco, dark chocolate ganache, black earth, and ores.

The wine tastes like it smells. Tremendous concentration and range, seemingly without heavy extraction. Serious acid, gripping tannins, unobtrusive alcohol. The finish knows no quit.

Likely a decade from a middle drinking window. Leaning modern yet not lacking for Old World soul. It will be interesting to follow. Drink by 2037-2038. 93-94.
