Community Tasting Note

Saturday, August 5, 2023 - revisiting this wine after nine months, i would say this needs another couple of years still.

i previously wrote:

"rich purplish colour with appreciable body and a nose that has a somewhat subdued but lovely mix of red and black fruit along with clear floral notes. somewhat surprisingly fruit forward in the mouth, there is a firm tannic backbone for support. can't say that i was able to appreciate the nuances (time and taste saturation)"

well, i can start to taste some of the nuances already, but they quickly run into that still very stiff tannic backbone that cuts the experience (and finish) short.

the big upside potential of this remains undiminished.
