Community Tasting Note

  • Fine wine Lad wrote: 88 points

    January 16, 2021 - Decanted for 1hrs

    The wine is clear, looks purplish coloured. The legs are long. There is not much sediment in the bottle.

    On the nose: Black pepper, Savoury herbs, blackberry.

    On the palate: Black pepper, Stoniness, rich stewed red fruit. Overall savoury with a lot of minerality.

    The body is medium
    The wine has slightly angular texture.
    The wine has a medium finish
    The wine has fresh to smooth acidity.
    The wine medium Tannins.

    Decanted for 1h. Bit by Bit the fruit started to come. Very dark almost black in colour. Overall very savoury, not amazing but ok for a Saturday night in Jan. Its definitely a food wine and went well with Spaghetti and meatballs.
