Community Tasting Note

    November 26, 2019 - Was very excited to wait for and try this...So it finally arrived and my needle was in my hand (Coravin that is)...
    All in all, nothing more than a classy table wine from a great vintage that is probably drinking right at the value of its price of 25 quid. It reminds me of the 2000 vintage, lots of good pleasant table wines for around 20 bucks back then....Some exceeded their expectations over the next 10 years, but many did not survive me, because its a perfect wine to to open when wine chuggers are in the house!

    Notes: Medium body, beaming raspberry bouquet, followed with much of he same underneath with great balance of toast, vanilla, and graphite. Shortish finish...

    Drink or Hold
