Community Tasting Note

Heynetty Likes this wine:

Monday, July 23, 2018 - Wine Dojo - Week 19 - The Grand Tour: Northern Italy (Elliot's Place): Tasted Blind

A: Medium gold
N: Peach stone, wet stone, green almond, Elliot spotted Petroleum and i didn't get anything like that until it warmed up. There was a kerosene whiff for certain, salt. Youthful
P: Dry, medium acid, medium body, medium (+) intensity and medium finish. Medium (-) alcohol (12%)I wavered between dry and off-dry but it was dry with some RS still evident.
C: One should be able to hold these for 5+ years but the acidity is a worry. Not high enough acidity to guarantee freshness. I didn't get the same level of wax that i got in the first. BLIC? Good quality wine this but not complex and more fruit to balance the stoniness from the volcanic soil would be better.
