May 1, 2024 - NobleRottersSydney - Sangiovese & Tempranillo (Glass Brasserie, Sydney): {375ml, cork, 13.5%} [Geoffrey] Plenty of vanilla, marzipan, nougat. Some development going on here. Has richness rather than overt sweetness on the palate. It’s beyond ‘off-dry’ but not much. Quite full weight, or at least with denseness of texture, and an even, medium length finish. Suspect this will peak earlier rather than later too.

April 16, 2024 - The wine looks yellow gold colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like gooseberry, raisin, apple, peach, mango, apple blossom, orange blossom, peach blossom and leesy. It tastes like gooseberry, lime, orange, fig, raisin, apple, apricot, peach, pear, cantaloupe, mango, honeydew, melon, oak, vanilla, apple blossom, honeysuckle, orange blossom, peach blossom, almond, honey, botrytised, biscuity and leesy. The body is full. The wine has juicy texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has high acidity.
