Community Tasting Notes 5

  • MS86 Likes this wine: 94 points

    October 31, 2022 - Last tried 3 years ago, a bit of bottle age has done wonders. This wine is fresh and vibrant and in no way overdone. Aromas are powerful and integrated. The oak remains but does not overpower. New leather, menthol, blackberry and plum and deep vein of stone minerality and fresh cut grass adding freshness. Palate is medium bodied with pronounced mid palate acidity and presence from the warming alcohol. Flavours of mint and ripe black fruit last long on the finish. Beautiful now. Drink to 2027.

    April 3, 2020 - Beautiful aromas...stawberries...red liquorice..always a treat. Must order in when you get the release by email otherwise forget about purchasing at the winery because it will not be on the shelves.

    October 24, 2019 - A gorgeous nose - aromas of animal, savoury, leather, pencil shavings / graphite, some Brett; vanilla and spice; ripe black currant and blackberry; herbaceous
    It is subtle and not overly-jammy; more Bordeaux-like than Napa-like on the nose
    High acid
    Medium body, somewhat plush mouthfeel; gentle tannins— perhaps lacking in structure and backbone
    Medium+ finish
