Saturday, December 30, 2023 - Blind tasting
Medium ruby, filtered
Aromatics medium +. Initially there is a blend of pencil lead, iron and dust for which there is probably a better descriptor but I couldn't think what it would be. Seemed like early tertiaries. Behind this a brown cherry and later some mint. No new oak for me but apparently 40%.
Palate has a medium + body. Acid medium +. Tannins medium + to high, but relatively fine grained. Alcohol medium +. Ripe dark but bitter plums and cocoa powder.
Finish has a medium + length. Balanced
I guessed a 2013 right bank Bordeaux. Zinfandel never entered my mind
I suspect this should be held for a number of years
