Friday, July 1, 2022 - This was my selection for our monthly CWG at Eddie’s V.
Opened for one hour and double decanted for 45 min.
The wine is deep red ruby, no bricks, not showing any age, nose of flowers. The palate is sooo good and firm, black berries and earthy notes, entering its multidimensional phase… and the finish OMG.
I’m in luck that I have a second bottle which I’ll try to hold for at least 5+ years…
We had it blind and people at the table said crazy things like “Tempranillo (Pingus)”, to possible Malbec from South America but they were just profiling me!

No, in all seriousness, ty for bringing this beautiful wine to the dinner table. Very strong still for 13 yo. I'd hold your other bottle for 10 more years!
