Community Tasting Note

Monday, January 3, 2022 - Notes on Wines from December 2021 (Wellington, NZ): Served double blind by Larry. Larry is keen on his whole bunch, so this wine shouldn’t have been a surprise, and it was drinking very well, albeit probably close to the end of its prime life. Spices, iron filings, dry brush, earth, dried herbs, red cherry and raspberry aromas. Evolved and mellow. On entry to the palate, dry underbrush, savoury and dried herbal notes, with earth and ferric minerality. But there was still a core of sweet, rich red cherry and red currant fruit. Fruit, acids and tannins largely resolved and integrated. I guessed 2003 then 2002. To drink in the next few years. 92+.
