Community Tasting Notes 1

March 6, 2023 - This layered and dense wine needs a few more years, but it is tasty nonetheless. More chiseled than a 2018 Leroux Vosne-Romanee tasted on the same night, this is a bit closed right now, but it is bursting with potential. Dark cherry in color; medium in body; aromas of raspberry, pomegranate, rose petals, and gravel. The flavors are elegant, especially after a few hours, with notes of dried strawberry, sour cherry, and rhubarb, followed by a wispy and lifted finish. 14% alcohol. 93-94 at the moment, but ideally wait to open until 2025 or later.
