| Community Tasting Notes (average 88.7 pts. and median of 89 pts. in 6 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by HannahS on 12/21/2023 flawed bottle: Over the hill or possibly a storage issue. (170 views) | | | Tasted by 5laton on 8/5/2023 flawed bottle: Mouse 🤢 (209 views) | | | Tasted by HopmanSeymourJunior on 4/20/2023 & rated 89 points: On the nose, the spice of the GMS + Carignan is immediately evident. The first sip imparts an unexpected effervescence - in retrospect, I wish we had served the bottle a bit cooler. On the palate, the juicy red fruit initially could come off as jammy, but is quickly balanced by the pleasant tannins and acidity (and, refreshingly, the lack of oak). Overall, pretty well-rounded.
This wine is both interesting and fun to drink, at the price point I could see it becoming a "go-to" during the summertime or when sharing with larger groups. (181 views) | | | Tasted by evjoh on 1/16/2023: I’m glad I read notes before opening this: the fizzy call below tipped me to give this an hour-long decant and it paid off. After that hour, the off-putting natty notes fade and reveal sweet, inky dark fruit along with gentle brett and licorice.
It’s hot at 14% and has a bit of noticeable RS. Despite not usually liking wines with this level of extraction, the moderate tannin and acid provide just enough backbone to not make this feel syrupy. Great with food on a cold day. (302 views) | | | Tasted by dnlng on 12/17/2022 & rated 90 points: Very unique nose exhibiting wet forest, barn and herbal aromas. Natural wine with slight fizz and dark fruits. Very fun and intriguing to drink! (272 views) | | | Tasted by Sven D on 7/7/2022 & rated 87 points: Onverwachts degelijk.
Nu op zijn best, niet wachten gezien de 14,5% en net je dat qua zuren die nodig zijn om zich verder te ontwikkelen. Echter geen verstoorde balans nu in zijn jeugd. Niet de meest minerale Faugeres maar een fruit en power spurter die zich houdt aan de regels. Perfect op een 16° bij rood vlees.
Deze heeft geen last van de beruchte stalgeur maar je weet in dit aroma dat het er zit aan te komen. Vroeger kon wat stalgeur hebben maar mijn doos Chateau9 Fu Pape Pegau 2009 was het er zo over dat ik gevoelig ben aan overdrijven (daar wel berucht). (427 views) |
