Community Tasting Note

Sunday, December 17, 2023 - Brought this to my close friend from the University days' place for a gathering with our fellow University mates. It was a combined Christmas celebration and a farewell to her current residence.

Dark purple in colour with beautiful aromatics on the nose. Fragrant bouquet coupled with fresh plums, blueberries, French toast, licquorice, and forest floor. Drinking this wine now reminds the drinker of a walk along the streams in the gardens in early spring, with the earth coming back to life and pockets of surprise awaits the patient.

What was exceptional about the wine is that little decanting is required, and all the elements are in their place with the wine hitting all the right notes. The 2011 has been touted as an early drinking vintage (and rightfully so), but based on this wine it is a highly underrated one as well.
