Community Tasting Note

Friday, November 17, 2023 - Oh, man -- I don't drink enough old world wine. I can't even begin to describe this nose. Wet spiced ginger cake, drunken cherries, balsamic syrup. On the palate, acids dominate the rich flavors. Balsamic flavors continue, mixing with richer cherry flavors and just the bare ascetic hint. There's some fine tannin still present, and overall it just seems like there's a lot of room for development. If there's a flaw, it's that it drinks a bit hot. 14.1 is surely common where I'm from, but it might inhibit the perception of some of the complex flavors that this wine definitely possesses. I'm going to save my remaining bottle for another 4 or 5 and try it again.
