WSET 3 - session 4 (Utrecht): [Blind tasted] Very expressive on the nose; black currant, cassis, clove, stewed black berry, leather, wet leaves, meaty. Medium acidity, medium tannins, long finish. Already developing quite nicely

Immediately very charming and classic on the nose. It smells like elegant Syrah should. After decanting for about an hour, the wine was properly open, and offered very elegant fruits, a balanced acidity, and no notable tannins. This went well with flank steak. Drink now or through the next five years or so.

Nose The wine is developing and exhibits pronounced aromas of black cherry, black plum, blackberry, black pepper, dusty gravel, sage and leather.
Palate The wine is dry, full bodied, with high acidity, medium (+) tannins, medium alcohol and exhibits pronounced flavors of black cherry, red cherry, blackberry, black plum, savory herbs, and vanilla.
Conclusion The quality of the wine is very good. It will benefit from further aging, but can be enjoyed now.

Steak with pepper sauce. Very good St Joseph, as always from Y. Cuilleron

第一次,气味尚可,但是并不十分充分,口中偏稀淡。接下来几次,一次比一次差。
