Community Tasting Note

Friday, April 7, 2023 - A few days in Napa with fellow CT'r Cristal2000: The 2019 Mysterons (Ecotone) was served side-by-side with the 2018 Abreu Thorevilos. The vintages and stylistic differences between producers/winemakers was evident, with more throw-your-hands-in-the-air throwback in the Abreu and more modern flair and fantasticness in the Mysterons. This too was grippy at first, but it didn’t take long before the yummy black fruit was Miami Heat pumping in all different directions. Vanilla and chocolate pulse through the black fruit, finishing with power and saturation. Richer and more flamboyant than the Abreu, the Mysterons is a hedonistic Dracula kind of juice befitting a Halloween party with flying gargoyles and dancing satyrs. Hold bottles until October 31st, 2027.
