1943 is not a vintage I see often. Made during the peak of World War 2, this is truly bottled history, which was not lost on me as I experienced every hint of leafy herbs, tobacco leaf, bright red currants, peppery herbs, and forest leaf. Drink from 2022-2025.

Surprisingly good for a war years wine, this was all about its smoke, tobacco, cigar box, earth, cedar and light cherry notes. Medium bodied, and almost light in weight, there was still a hint of freshness to the red berries in the finish. A treat to taste indeed!
