  9/27/2022 - Windacre in the Slope Likes this wine: 96 Points

  Bottle was down into the shoulder, expected it to be dead. Earthy with some mushroom on the nose. Body is soft and still bright. Doubt it’ll last long but good while it still lasts. UPDATE - I was wrong after 30 minutes in the glass it's really glorious....soft and supple it just flows around the neurons with light fruit and soft tannins. Not much of a finish or it'd be spectacular. UPDATE 2 - 3 hours in finishing the bottle, and it's STILL an extraordinary and evolving wine. What a treat.
