Saturday, July 22, 2023 - Wine Ramblings belated birthday gathering at ESK. Tasted blind to the vintage. Drank in Conterno Sensory.
Appearance is clear, very pale intensity, ruby colour with thin garnet rim. Legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of red licorice, potpourri, bright red cherries, ripe strawberry. Developed.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium+ alcohol (14%), fine high tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of fine leather, sweet spices, red licorice, bright red cherries, ripe strawberry, sweet earth with slight truffle mushroom, hint of cola. Very long finish.
Excellent quality. Very complex. Very pleasing mouth-filling mouthfeel.
Bravo, what an awesome wine this is, bad vintage be dammed. Great drinking.
