Community Tasting Note

87 Points

Thursday, May 7, 2020 - Still very dark with some purple patches. Rich blackberry and mint on the nose, with an intense concentrated cool palate. Mouth-coating with quite sharp tannins from the mid-palate. Not as evolved as I expected.

Half the bottle was left overnight and tried again the following evening, by which time it had rather fallen away.

Overall, there were hints of very real promise here, but a small something just seemed to be lacking. I've got another five or six of these and am keen to give this wine another try soon.
