Community Tasting Note

Geaux Tigers Likes this wine:

Monday, March 6, 2023 - DD then recorked and let rest for 90 min. On the palate, not a hard edge anywhere, red and black berry fruit dominated, juicy plum, with a touch of dried herbs and a faint fleeting blood orange note. Intense floral perfume on the nose along with ripe crushed blueberries and a hint of mint. No oak or tannins. With more time, dark chocolate and chocolate covered berries appear. What a wine, flawless flow from front to back, with a 30-45 second finish!

That said, I think this is either at or slightly past peak for my palate. Not a flaw, just an observation. Some of the usual Bevan intensity has seemingly become subdued. The acid has waned leaving me to wonder how much more life this can sustain it lovely drinking window (couple of years?). My last bottle, so not a legitimate worry for this amateur.
