Community Tasting Note

Thursday, June 6, 2019 - Served double blind. Musty and mushroomy at first, this fanned out to show dried orange peel, herbal tea, walnuts, wrapped in great acidity. Succulent, silky, mature, finished up with a savory rust/dried blood note. I immediately said, "this can only be one thing - Tondonia from the 80s."
Hilariously wrong, but a great endorsement for this fully mature burg which taste much older and prestigious than it is.

Cheers
