Community Tasting Note

Jason Wu Likes this wine:

Thursday, September 12, 2019 - Dark core with onion skin rim.
On the nose, tertiary aromas of mushroom and decayed leaves are at the forefront, then evolve into Cantonese style sausage (腊肠)/hung meat and chasu flavour, so meaty and delicious. There is also a touch of mint and leaf. Finally, the dark fruit of black currant, black cherry and plum starts to shine.
On the palate, very concentrated dark fruit and spices to start with. Tannins are still structural but smooth and fine. Still fleshy and yummy with finish of dark chocolate. The only thing is that I feel it’s a little hollow in the mid palate (due to 100% cabs?), not so sure about it.
Overall, it’s a beautiful and vibrant wine given its age. It can still cellar for a few years.
