Community Tasting Note

Saturday, November 20, 2021 - A freshly wound mainspring of a wine. Tightly wound, concentrated, yet precise and clear cut. Filled with grapefruit zest, crushed slate, and cooling herbs. Firm and craggily texture with a lasting mineral and sapid finish. Enjoyable now with a decant, but clearly needs a few years to unwind. Saved some for day 2 to see how it evolves. AP 12 20

Day 2: It's significantly unwound from the previous night, but still maintains that slackline tension, density and power. The fruit became more exuberant, prickly pear, peach, amla; and as it warmed up in the glass, the herbal elements became clearer and floral notes started emerging. Lemon balm, mimosa, vetiver.

ABV: 12.5%
Closure: natural cork
Stem: Grassl 1855
Decant: 3h
