Community Tasting Note

90 Points

Saturday, April 18, 2020 - level mid-neck, still youthful colour with purple tinge, nose very fruity, some complexity but still young without much in the way of tertiary character, very good though, palate well balanced and intense but not all the rough edges yet integrated, a very good wine, especially for the vintage, with real upside potential but for my tastes it needs more time, from the intensity, concentration and balance the next bottle could be in 5 years and then I would not be surprised if it will have aged only incrementally, not to say that it is not very enjoyable now but there is still real potential and I see no risk in waiting.
