Community Tasting Notes 14

    December 13, 2022 - 醒酒一个半小时,深宝石红色,闻香有明显的桉树气息,草本植物,淡淡野肉,黑果和橄榄的味道,入口酸度中等,酒液咸,收口甜美,单宁紧涩,颗粒细腻,充分陈年的梅果和成熟黑果香气,咸橄榄混合着草本气息,后段有些许酒精感,余味非常漂亮,梅果和胭脂香料,还有淡淡奶油香味。发展很充分的一支酒,处在适饮巅峰期,继续醒酒后单宁更加细腻,中等酒体,香气复杂,层次丰富,有着巴罗萨谷设拉子的典型风格,充分的陈年让它变得更加优雅,柔和宜饮。

    July 9, 2022 - Decant 1 hr. Nothing on the nose really. Bit of oak then nothing.
    Nothing really on the palate. Fruit gone. Tannins missing ...fading.
    Very disappointing. My previous one was good. Hot Barossa 13....
    I fear for my others.
    Finished on night 2 hoping for better. Disappointment continued.

    July 31, 2021 - Needed 3 hours in the decanter for the heat to burn off, hit and heavy before then.

    January 18, 2020 - A few years since my last, it’s nice but I expected more.

    July 26, 2019 - Needed at least three and a half hours in the decanter to open up, a tad unpleasant before then. It rounds out with a milk chocolatey palate. Better notes next time. Holding up strongly.
