Community Tasting Note

Joshvoulters Likes this wine:

Wednesday, August 16, 2023 - Niccolo's Ferragosto Feast (Chez Nick): I was surprised at the tertiary development here after only a decade: coffee, meat and tobacco notes alongside black fruit. I wanted to like it more than I did: I found it slightly brutish and unyielding for the time I had it in the glass, with a certain leanness on the palate. It may be telling that I enjoyed the last sip the most: floral notes were unfurling and there was an emerging layer of spice, albeit the palate was still quite mean. An enigma but I’d lean towards it needing more time, despite the level of maturity it’s already showing.
