Community Tasting Note

95 Points

Friday, August 5, 2016 - French and Italian wine gathering (The Grill Room at Rosewood DC): One of the freshest examples, recently disgorged. Quite unique meaty nose, ham, fresh peeled apple that has oxidized slightly, lemon curd, dry almond palate, a hint of chlorine white chocolate and anise. Fully integrated palate, nicely layered, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, and very long finish. Very good showing but still not sure if I like this a lot more than Initial.
