Community Tasting Note
Shloly Likes this wine:
Wednesday, June 7, 2023 - The wine is clear, with deep ruby colour, garnet towards the rims, and think legs.
On the nose, the wine is clean, with medium plus primary aroma intensity of ripe red and black fruits, plums, spices, black pepper, plums, floral, blossom, herbal, along with medium plus tertiary aroma intensity of meat, and cooked fruits.
On the palate, the wine is dry, with medium plus acidity, medium ripe tannins, medium plus alcohol, medium body, medium plus primary flavour intensity of ripe red fruits, plums, spices, black pepper, herbal, floral, along with medium tertiary flavour intensity of meat.
Finish is long, with green notes towards end palate.
The wine is of a very good quality as it is showing great balance between fruit concentration and acidity, with excellent length, and expressive primary and tertiary characteristics. It is complex, and keep developing in the glass throughout the tasting.
The wine was expressive enough at time of tasting, however showed pronounce tannins and slight green notes, thus I believe it can benefit from just a bit more bottle aging, in order to soft down the tannins and bring to front more of the tertiary characteristics.
