Sunday, December 29, 2019 - Clear medium plum cherry fruit with a tinge of brick. High toned and showing some musty notes, cedar, wood, some light cherry and plum fruit. Not really showing any meaty, smokey notes that I would have expected. Medium bodied, crisp and lively with strong acidity, medium tannins, nice long finish, more red than black fruits, cherry and plum, not a huge amount of complexity. A little disappointing to be honest, just does not show enough character.
After a few days corked up this seemed to gain weight - showed a darker, tarry and iodine note on the nose, still did not improve a whole bunch on the palate.
