Community Tasting Note

rikipedia Likes this wine:

Saturday, November 20, 2021 - Deep mahogany.
Detailed and lifted bouquet of smoked meat, dark fruits, spice cake and dark chocolate with a hint of coconut and overripe banana - encapsulates mature Rioja. As the wine opened, there was vanilla, toasted herbs and a cherry eau-de-vie.
The palate entry elevates the cherry liqueur note adding marinated black cherry, black raspberry, blackberry and liquorice. A lush texture with flesh and firm, glycerol-encased tannins gives a beautiful structure that is remarkably compact. There is a savoury twist of underbrush and toasted spices, yet the sweet fruit rises towards the long, dense finish with a raspberry ripple, vanilla character. Not a lot of acidity does give a slight soapy/flabby element to the aftertaste.
