Sunday, August 12, 2018 - Visually the wine is starting to brick around the edges. Aromas of menthol, cedar, florals and a touch of gum leaf. Flavours of red berries, earth, iron, graphite, plums, cranberry and cedar. On the palate there is a driving spine of bright acidity which dances on the tongue, backed up with loads of fine mouth coating tannin. The finish was medium to long.
A guest bought this over for lunch. It was decanted 1.5 hours prior to consuming, then consumed over the next ensuring 2-3 hours. Typically the wine evolved and continued to open up, I would have loved to give it more aeration and time.
