Community Tasting Notes 15

    April 11, 2023 - Pepper, leather, plumb, raspberry. Full bodied and round mouthfeel. Really enjoyable and still fresh. Needs another 2-4 years.

  • DrDave88 Likes this wine:

    November 19, 2022 - Day 1

    Nose: blackcurrants again, oaky oak (woody rather than sweet)

    Palate: wild, tannins pronounced tannins, still moderate, fine grained.

    Day 2

    Nose: blackcurrants, leather

    Palate: black fruits followed by leathery, earthy, herbal notes? Complemented a beef ragu very well

    Aromas more direct and easy to identify when slightly chilled

    Day 3

    Really getting into it’s stride after a few days. More leathery and earthy notes to go along with the fruit
