Community Tasting Note

  • bobbylion Likes this wine: 92 points

    April 14, 2024 - Nice. And for 27 euros no brainer. Salt, good acidity and lots of complexity here. Of course very young, but after 4 hrs decant almost ok to drink if you have to. Better to wait 3-4 years. Should be well into 93-94 territory then. Surely can go 15-20 years, giving its 5-7 times more expensive 21s sisters a good run for the money.
