Community Tasting Note

  • rocknroller wrote: 94 points

    April 14, 2023 - Old Guys Lunch: Hittin' the Patio (Ciao Bella, Mpls): Medium dark red plus color with a 6mm transition. Decanted for about 2 hours. Drank a glass over an hour plus. Lovely nose, dried strawberry, rose petals, dried herbs, fresh, red berries, dusty, hints of anise. The palate shows firm but plush tannins, medium weight, strawberry, cherry, dried wood, anise, good depth and length. Just a baby, but starting to strut its stuff.

Searching for that first magical bottle to prove my intuition correct. Thank you! I’ll keep you posted, but I’m guessing I won’t touch this until at least 2025?
