Community Tasting Note

Sunday, February 4, 2024 - Drank this over 4-5 hours.

This took a long time to open up. Initially quite closed with some dark red cherry, smoke and herbal notes (think thyme, fennel frawns) eventually got glimpses of earthiness I cannot stress how long this took to give me something I could pick up on the nose.

First impressions were that it was somewhat disjointed but not unpleasant with typical etnean ash finish but man oh man time helped this out a lot.

The wine came together and what was left was a beautifully pure, fresh and complex wine. Good structure, quite precise, fresh and pure. The finish was smooth and subtle. This did not show 14.5%abv. The freshness took me aback. Joy to drink.

94 points could hit 96 with a few more years on it
