Community Tasting Note

unionst Likes this wine:

Friday, November 19, 2021 - Ink black color with dark plum skin highlights, lustrous
Nose jumps from crushed blackberries to eucalyptus to dark minerals, then comes ripe plum and black licorice, dark minerality then white pepper, layered and elusive. Much like a La Turque or La Chappelle in a great year.
Rich, full wine full of energy but completely in balance. Layers of juicy black fruit, black licorice and white pepper on the finish. Again, the palate is consistent with the nose. Meal in a glass. Layer upon layer and full on front and mid-palate and on the finish.
All of that and I would consider the wine to be in its drinking window but not at its peak - years left to evolve.
The score may be low.
