Friday, April 14, 2023 - Opened on Easter, six days ago. Cork had good pull but felt pliant. Bouquet leapt from bottle like race horses from the starting gate, very aromatic. That doesn't happen a lot in my experience. Deep purple, thick and slow legs. I could tell that there was considerable alcohol but no one does high alcohol wines better than Reva. Full bodied wine. Fruit was great and stood up admirably to alcohol. Was at its best on day six, where the alcohol really receded, leaving a medium bodied fruit. I don't know how that is possible, as alcohol is alcohol, and cant see it leaving wine through evaporation. But it felt like it had or at least changed so it appeared to decrease. Was a great wine but can see where others don't like this style. Well made wine and was ready. Fruit didn't fade at all.
