Community Tasting Note

Friday, May 7, 2021 - Stood up the bottle for a couple of months as I had kept intending to open it, just never got around to it. Decanted for sediment and poured back into the bottle before dinner.

The wine poured a beautiful clear ruby red. The nose was an intoxicating aroma of freshly picked earthy wild strawberries - covered in soil but at the peak of their ripeness. The wine needed about a hour of air to really open up on the palate, a balanced and elegant pure strawberry fruit glides effortlessly on the wine with cool aged acidity elongating the savory sous bois notes that developed with air. The wine has aged wonderfully.

Beautiful wine and we crushed it in no time flat
