Community Tasting Note

Caruso Likes this wine:

Sunday, April 16, 2023 - From my warmer than textbook cellar reaching 18°C in summer with a perfect cork as corked yesterday. Garnet with no orange hue in thin layers. From the start medium intense and elegant, so nuanced nose of red currants, herbs, with swirling black fruits, dusty wood, thyme, oregano getting more intense over an hour of air (no decant). On the palate this is without any heavyness, excellent to outstanding intensity, refreshing acidity, still round but very present tannin and good length. 5/14/17/10. Though fully mature it has a long way to go, I believe. From a textbook cellar of 12°C whole year this may be quite young to fully appreciate it. But also true: After 2 hours in the partly emptied bottle it became less nuanced with dominating cherry notes and adstringency. 2023-2030 Dunnuck gave it 94 points in 2015 and a drinking window at least till 2025.
