December 31, 2021 - Complex and rich, this already has some tertiary notes showing up and a seductive silky mouthfeel. Leaves the mouth watering after a lingering finish. Boysenberry on the attack and the nose is fun to revisit. I get new nuances each whiff. It's very enjoyable and paired wonderfully with duck breast seared and glazed with mirin, yuzu and ginger.
The only thing holding this back from greatness was a mild vegetative note mid palate. Like cucumber skin. Not bad and I'm nitpicking. Not too distracting and doesn't change the great experience but cannot score it higher with this slight, slight discordant note. Would recommend this wine. Very, very good, as reflected in my score.1,730 views
