Community Tasting Notes 50

  January 8, 2024 - Cork destroyed on approach. Recovery involved a sieve and a muslin. Wine poured dark, thick and mercifully, clear. Extravagant nose, room filling. Dark plums and bright cherry, wood, leather and wardrobe. Did I mention thick? Mouth is rich, coating and persistent. I’m getting more secondary and tertiary than fruit but what there is is black and slightly caramelised. It’s got a lot going on, meat, polish, leather, eucalypt and herb. In comparison I’d point at CNdP, Brunello, Musar and Priorat. This is not a small wine but it repays your time. Good with food and a sipper on the sofa.

  January 10, 2022 - Really big and powerful, tannic and fruit -dominated. Aerated and decanted an hour before serving. Remained strong for about 2 hours while we finished the bottle. Very even and extended finish.

  January 8, 2022 - Decanted six hours, and trust me, it needs it! Maybe even longer? 12 hours? Big, powerful wine. Very enjoyable and good value. Felt this had a little too much fruit for my taste and I preferred the 2011 and 2014, but this is still a very good wine for the price.
