March 5, 2024 - Winemaker tasting - Peter Michael Winery (Trio): This flight: Au Paradis 2020, 2019,2014
All 3 vintages: extremely rich, high alcohol, full body - too much for me. Tannins on gums not tongue (BF). High ratings on WA. My ratings are not close. Ratings based on performance right now:
- 2020: Deep ruby color. High acidity, M+ tannins. Aromas of black currant, cassis, no green pepper (probably because of the warm climate), jamminess. 88
- 2019: High acidity. Still rich, but less than 2020. Aromas of cassis and green pepper. Too much oak at the moment, not sure it is going to integrate satisfactory. Nevertheless the best of the 3. 89+.
- 2014: M+ acidity. Very close to 2019 in all respects. 89 -
