Community Tasting Note

Caruso Likes this wine:

Friday, August 31, 2018 - Given the age of this wine the colour of it is astounding. Ruby with only slight orange hue at the rim. While the nose is not that intense, but complex with aromas of garrigue, cherries, dark fruits, on the palate it is a real knock out. Intense, but also fine, with additional hints of incense, dark cherry fruit und forest floor. The tannin is ripe, smooth and has low level and the wine has good length. The 14,6 % alc. are completely hidden. With time it even gains in intensity and gets additional notes of coffee and tobacco. I had this wine multiple times in the last 15 years, rating from 94 to 95, but this time it shows itself probably better than ever. Nevertheless I don't believe in a decade or more of positive evolution. Well stored examples should have a magical peak now. If you have multiple bottles in your cellar, try them and have a close look at the evolution over the next years. 5/13/19/8. 96 points from the WA (Jeb Dunnuck in 2016) -2023+?
