Community Tasting Note

Thursday, June 20, 2019 - 4th bottle since release, and this is my final one. Opened this on Monday, drank a glass or so across the past few days, finishing the final glass today 48 hrs later. Burg stem, temp ideal, without food. When really cool, this has a plush collision of raspberry and cherry, along with an herbal underpinning. As this airs, a bit of oak comes through, the juiciness of the wine accelerating too. The flavors evolve too, picking up the same red apple quality of the previous bottles, and some blueberry shows up. All of this doesn't surprise me, as if you served this to me blind, I'd guess Copain Kiser En Bas when Wells made fruit off that plot, which is right next door to Bearwallow (where the fruit for this Alesia is grown). There is some light structure here, which for my palate is absorbed into all the berry fruit that this wine nicely exhibits. Good stuff here, ready to go and this bottle finishes nicely, mixed up against A Tribe Called Quest for some final flavor as background music.
