Community Tasting Note

  • fussyeater wrote: 92 points

    July 2, 2021 - Absolute infanticide to open this now, however curiosity and "science" got the better of me. Day 1 - confused unbalanced, heavy oak nose, struggling to delineate flavours, disjoined (knees and elbows!) - not very pleasant. Day 2 - heavy oak nose is gone as it is muted, still seems unfocused on the mid palette - okay. Day 3 - nose remains fairly muted, on the palette much better delineation and clarity. Refreshing lemony citrus fruit, very pure and clean yet nicely restrained. Lovely lasting finish. Ideally best from 2035 when it would likely merit a far higher score. Bottled under Diam 10 with wax seal. Tasted from Conterno Sensory.
