Community Tasting Note

90 Points

Monday, August 22, 2022 - I wasn’t quite as impressed with this wine but for many it was among the most enjoyed wines at a phenomenal tasting.

PnP, this was mostly tertiary and quite green. Heavy capsicum notes on the nose with some dark tobacco and umami. Palate was lean and somewhat short but silky and with good supporting acids. Same bottle at Nutty08 and I’d agree it’s a bit past peak now.
