  9/27/2020 - Eudemis Likes this wine:

  13% alcohol. Neb 80%, Vespolina 20%, or thereabout. Superb long cork. Decanted 75 mn ahead. Pale fading colour.
  The nose is intense, close to intoxicating, with dried flowers and raisins.
  The mouth is a step or two behind, with a fluid aspect and a certain lack of substance; it is not all negative though, as there is good grip, some intensity and reasonable length. Some of the promise of the aromas transfer to the flavours, but you have to work hard to coax them out; no interfering tannins.
  If the mouth matched the nose, I would be all over this wine; as it is, I am more ambivalent about it. Reasonable value at 20€, but I can think of many many wines at or under this price point the I enjoy a good deal more.
  To be investigated further.
