Community Tasting Note

  • Seth Rosenberg Likes this wine: 94 points

    April 30, 2015 - Greet Adira and small BYO at our place, round 2 (Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, NYC): Purchased by my dad on release. Showing really well tonight. Exotic and perfumed - meaty, plummy, some tomato, spices, a little bit of sweetness left over from the oak, which is well integrated now. Some cedar or tobacco. Palate shows plummy fruit, spice, tomato, sweet cedar. A touch of VA but 'in a good way'. A little BDX-like but much more interesting. Lots of sweet fruit and spice on finish. This is mature, supple, not huge. Nose - 5/6, Palate - 5.5/6, Finish - 5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1.5/2 = 17/20.

    5/13/15, 7:50 PM - Nice note. Really bummed I was sick, but I was miserable. Now fully recovered and enjoying a bottle of this Pesquera last night and tonight. I don't really get the VA, but everything else rings true, and I stand by my last note on this wine. I just love this. These is a "juiciness" to this wine, as well - really gets the salivary glands going. Fantastic wine, fantastic value. Drinking "a point". Wish I had more than 2 or 3 more btls.
