Community Tasting Notes 1

March 12, 2022 - Montebuono vertical - In memory of Lino Maga (Skype): 12.6% ABV. Medium ruby colour, some sediment. Smells of natural wines. Good, crunchy red fruit, game, intense brett, and some VA, with lively acidity, slightly rustic tannin, and very good length of the dry finish. The wine is rustic yet balanced, and quite energetic. It became more smoothly textured after aeration, and seems to have upside potential. That said, if you are sensitive to brett and dislike feral notes in wine (which were even more pronounced from day two), you should definitely pass on the 2014. 91+ for now.
