Community Tasting Notes (5) Avg Score: 90 points

  • Similar to previous notes
    Upon opening, there was a lot of cedar on the nose
    As the wine opened up, the oak notes receded into the background and the notes were of salted nuts and ripe lemon peel. Some savoury notes were beginning to show
    Very good concentration and length
    This is good to cellar for a few more years, but is drinking very well now

  • Probably just past its peak
    Aromas of cedar, bruised yellow apples, and burnt citrus peel. With some air and as wine warmed in the glass, got some sated nuts
    Palate is more fresh, with salinity and lemon
    Excellent length
    Drink up

  • Bottle 3 of 6
    Noticeably more evolved than previous bottles, despite only a few extra months having passed
    Aromas of lightly buttered popcorn and dried yellow fruits
    More fruit on the palate than the nose — yellow apples and dried lemon peel
    Mushroom notes on nose and palate
    Silky mid-weight texture
    This is drinking great right now
    Outstanding length

  • Bottles 1 and 2 of 6 — drunk one month apart. Same note for both

    Benefited from some aeration

    Persistent and pronounced citrus and yellow apples + minerality. Salted nuts and butterscotch
    Gorgeous texture, like light milk
    Some steeliness/metallic tastes on the palate. Nervy, electric, chiselled palate
    Round-the-mouth acidity
    Excellent to outstanding length of citrus and steel

    The fruits feel like they are beginning to fade so this wine is probably entering or in its prime now now
