Community Tasting Note

Hojun-na-Wine Likes this wine:

Friday, June 3, 2022 - Pale garnet with a watery rim.

Initial nose of earthy, dashi-like quality, toasty notes, kernel, red currant, red cherry, salty air, vanilla, orange liquor.

On the palate intense mineality, red cherry, soft earth. Dashi broth.

Medium alcohol, medium body, medium+ acidity. Round, fine but drying tannins lends good structure to the wine. Upon first pour it feels almost light in the mouth, you quickly get its power and presence which builds in the glass with air. There’s a wonderful salty minerality and an incredible length to the finish.

The wine kept evolving in the glass over the course of three hours, with red cherry and cranberry notes coming through more prominently later.

Fantastic, and will only improve with time.
