Saturday, January 7, 2023 - Nose: Pyrazines, Tobacco, tart berries and chocolate shavings. Palate: Harsh upon opening right now, but does mellow out with about 2 hours of air. Strawberry, Black currant, cedar, oak and bell pepper notes. Prominent green note to start. Finish: Settles into a dense herbal finish with good layers of dark fruit.
Tastes from Coravin. This needs time in the cellar right now, but time will tell what is there. This could take a bordelaise turn ( I hope) or remain somewhat awkward.
