Community Tasting Note

HowardNZ Likes this wine:

Tuesday, December 28, 2021 - 2019 Visit to North Canterbury, NZ: 2019 barrel tasting. 100% destemmed. Harvested a week after the Angel Flower. Two barrels, both older. Noticeably darker colour. A contrast on bouquet. In the darker berry and cherry spectrum with touches of clove and hints of violet and other dark florals. On palate, a richer, fuller expression with more power, structure and drive. Still, similar intense, focussing acidity to the Angel Flower. Very suave, fine grained tannins. Lovely mouthfeel. Good length. Preferred on the day.
