Community Tasting Note

March 30, 2014 - Opened at 11:30 am to drink at 7 pm. Smelled briny, like an over the hill Burgundy. Looked like red swamp water.
At 7pm beautiful wine. Clean rustic fruit. When I say clean, there was nothing inhibiting the fruit, such as oak. The fermenting process in cement makes this different from any wine I've ever tasted. The nose and taste I can only compare to an aged Burgundy but with a hard to explain cleaner and purer fruit. Others thought the nose was like an Amarone. By far the WOTN. My next action is to buy more!2 people found this helpful 4,568 views

Took a 2003 Tuderi for a week ago and had more or less the same experience with the color (or non-color) and development. Looking forward to the 2005 Tenores. -
