Community Tasting Note

  • dream Likes this wine: 92 points

    July 29, 2023 - Plenty of rich black fruits but also a good level of acidity and structure to keep it balanced and fresh. Full-bodied but not overdone and it finishes with smooth but not insignificant tannins and a nice mineral and floral lift. A hint of jam shows up with air that keeps a lid on the score for me but this is a somewhat less ripe and excellent vintage of Cardinale.
