Community Tasting Note

Tony Ling Likes this wine:

Friday, September 22, 2023 - PNP into Zalto Burgundy glass ("Leaf" day): Medium garnet to the eyes.

Great nose of floral-infused dark red cherry fruits. Earthy and tarry spices that is highly complex. Some hints of truffle and sweet soy sauce.

Needs some air time in bottle for the great elements to come together in my view.

94-95 points at this stage.

c.1.5 hour upon opening, 3rd to 4th pour onwards with 1/2 bottle left: Opened up very nicely with better integration and focus. More towards 95 points alongside the great lineup tonight.

c.2.5 hours upon opening, last few pours: More sweet soy sauce notes emerged that is disrupting the overall balance on the flavor profile to me. Back to 94-95 points overall. This might be resolved with longer slow-ox pre-serving next time / cellerage?
