Community Tasting Note

Chupeaka Does not like this wine:

Thursday, November 9, 2023 - 87 375ml half bottle decanted for 1 hour.

Cedar, spice, red cherry, red fruits. Some tar, herb, and iodine notes but only on the nose. Medium towards more full bodied wine. Slight signs of aging inn the color of the wine. Lacks in the midpalate and finish beyond cherry notes.

Very austere and the big tannins are a bit rough on the tongue. Acid is not super balanced either, gives off a sour taste. Nice freshness and lift but the wine seems quite muddled and austere. By the end of my glass, this was starting to open up a little and become more smooth. However, on the 2nd and 3rd day, this seemed to sputter out. Overly austere, bottle variation, or not ready.
