Community Tasting Notes 1

January 11, 2020 - Winebar [1 Rosé, 3 Whts, & 8 Reds] from 01/10/20 + 5 Shared Bottles (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): José & Torben, THANK you for making my tasting of this possible! :)
Decanted, then in a small tasting glass for a "couple" of hrs before I got to it
N: EARTH atop vanilla with notes of roses, poss tar?
P: LM, poss Lt, body; Rndish entry with NICE, ALMOST swtish met by an astringent pucker which stays in contact with the init frt as it fairly seamlessly evolves into a LONG, balanced, very, VERY slightly puckerish finish with an enticing (& still burgeoning?) swtness to the dusty tannins. Just starting to hit its stride? For now (with food), & guessing it will still be vibrant in '28? My EXC+, higher eventually?
