88 Points

Thursday, November 9, 2023 - Day one this was nice on the nose at first and then got very green and the palate was sour. Much better today.

Very pretty nose when first poured - dark cherry and wild strawberry. Some florals and a very strong Roilette green herbal streak. Very fresh and maybe sharp. Verging on bitter. Palate has loosened up some but still sour. Bright red berries and cherries and lots of green herbal. High high acid and very fresh and crisp. Palate starts with a surge of umami green herbs with hints of red ruits and florals and some stony minerality. Will probably improve with another day or two open.

Right now this is a little disappointing. Not sure if it’s the vintage or if it’s that I’ve mostly been drinking the Tardive for the last few years. Let’s see what day 2 and 3 bring. Nose: 4.5-5/6, Palate: 4.5-5/6, Finish: 4.5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi: 1/2 = 13.5-14.5/20.
