Community Tasting Note

• jmcmchi Likes this wine: 92 points

  November 8, 2018 - Ripe rich aromatics spread wide
  
  Black acidity, brooding dark flavours, very attractive medium+ body. Long finish redolent of sage and bramble

Acidity because it is brighter than tannins. So an amalgam of brightness and darkness
  
  On the scoring... other times I probably wouldn't argue with 93 or 94; on the night, for me that's how it was

  12/26/20, 12:31 PM - This guy Grinner seems to be some sort of Wine-Troll (which I didn’t know was a thing). He routinely seems to insult people that make honest and reasonable judgements. For what reason ? I can only think to draw attention to himself? Would advise not replying and/or telling him to FO (in old currency). I don’t think this is reasonable or pleasant behaviour...
