Community Tasting Note

  • petrusncoke wrote: 90 points

    March 8, 2010 - So I have been going through a lot of the wine that I have already tasted, and this has been one of the wines that I have now come to like more. The nose reveals sweet strawberry fruit, raspberry, smoke, clove, and minerals. On the palate the fruit is a bit more drier and restrained, and perhaps a bit darker, betraying blackcurrant and blueberry, yet the wine's character seems dominated by the flavors of minerals, gunpowder and dust, with hints of spice. Very elegant, refined and balanced with nice acidity and medium tannins. 90pts.

    I should also mention that this bottle, like others had the CO2 others have mentioned, yet it seems to disappear after 30 minutes of air.
