92 Points

Wednesday, December 21, 2016 - Tasted blind this time. Late night quick session at ES.
Appearance is clear, medium intensity, ruby colour. Legs.
Nose medium+ intensity, extremely complex and kept throwing up new aromas each time it was sniffed over 1.5 hours. Slight VA. Other aromas of floral violets, earth, perfume, sweet biscuit, honey caramel, sandalwood, sweet spice, red cherry. Developing.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium+ alcohol (13.5%), medium+ tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of sweet red cherries, sweet earth, licorice, peppery spices. Long finish.
Almost the same tasting note as the previous bottle drank non-blind. This bottle has slightly less VA and hardly any brett.
