Community Tasting Note

johnrm Likes this wine:

Monday, February 13, 2023 - Deep colour with a touch of purple at the edge. Good dark berry fruit with black cherries prominent. A backbone of soft tannins and balanced acidity both of which persisted on the long palate.
Cedar developed on standing and the wine evolved nicely over 6-8 hours showing rich, sweet fruit with persistent but soft tannins. I think this needs longer to show its best. I really should have waited to taste this again. I’ll keep my remaining couple of bottles for a few years. 89-90
Note added next day. After 24h+, the wine was disappointing. The fruit had largely faded leaving mainly the acidity and tannins. So, it may not age well on further cellaring. I’ll chance it, though.
