Community Tasting Note

  • djhammond Likes this wine: 93 points

    March 23, 2023 - This has developed into a decent wine after a few lukewarm years. However, that said, it is never going to manage to match some of the critics' plaudits on release. The flavour profile has evolved with a nose of glace cherry, cedar, with notes of flora and vanilla. The palate and finish are on the sharper side, but well balanced. However, I find that the finish is too astringent for my personal taste. I think that given the vintage, this should have the structure to age, and hopefully improve, but I fully concurre aeration. This really only needs a a very brief decant. Saved a glass for the following day and it had really mellowed and warranted upping the rating, and hopefully also boding well for aging potential. 93+
