Community Tasting Note

Saturday, January 30, 2021 - No decant (because no time...), but then consumed over 3 days. Very consistent with hardly any changes noticeable aromatically between day 1, straight out of the bottle, and day 3. Intense, commanding yet detailed. Lots of vegetable, green bell pepper and green olives notes. Dark fruit core of bramble-berry but also showing bright, red accents. White crushed pepper, a bit of Asian spice and rooibos tea round off an incredibly varied aroma profile. Firm and muscular on the palate. Lots of acidity balanced by structural tannin. Also tense and dense and concentrated bursting of juicy, sweet and ripe fruit. Amazingly spicy, savoury on the palate as well with a finish that just won‘t stop - haven‘t tested but I think you would still taste the RunRig finish even after a lemon slice and tequila shot. Another beast from Torbreck- but a gentle one you want to cuddle up to. So in short, while still a bit wild overall and likely needing time to settle down a bit, pretty spectacular overall. I guess my next bottle pops around 2023.
