Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, May 10, 2023 - Pale cerise.
Nose relatively muted initially, cool, coniferous sous bois continues to to evolve and build, at the one hour mark complex, cacophonous floral scents, at 3 hours gingerbread, spice, umbeboshi, chinotto, from 5 hours meaty, gamey, evocative of freshly slaughtered duck, then coniferous again, with subtle wafts of a salty sea breeze limestone mineralite.
The palate initially light and primary, red and pink fruited, strawberry, cranberry, pink grapefruit, herbaceous hints of tarragon, Morello cherry creeping in after an hour, but then at the 5 hour mark darker, myrtille and sloes. Citrusy acidity and fine but astringent tannin.
Not really a seductive or hedonistic wine, more in the realm of academic intrigue, very much understated.
