The definition of aging gracefully; astoundingly lifted and perfectly clean flavor. The weight is extraordinarily light for rioja, solid but not rough, with delicate dried fruit, raisin, spice, leather. No harshness or bitterness, not overtly acidic but enough that just disappears into the background. Medium-long finish. Decanted rapidly for ~30 minutes allowed some of the cellar funk to blow off. — 18 days ago
That citrusy white cashmere sweater vibe. Pomelo, lanolin, hint of lemon curd / yogurt. — 9 days ago

Punchy crowpleaser: heavy, almost syrupy body with strong, bold flavors of oaky vanilla, ripe black cherry, and cinnamon spice. Smooth and round mouthfeel. Not terribly complex but a joy to drink. — 18 days ago

Apple cider vibes and good acidity for Malvasia — 10 days ago
The nose has a petrol-y, mineral, onion-y aroma that blows off after a little bit. Muted red fruit, black pepper, short finish. — 18 days ago

This smells dank like the E in an NYC summer when someone has relieved themselves in the corner … but some nicer dark fruit to chase. Bright red cherry but also dried raisins at the same time. Not much in the way of tertiary or herbal/forest flavors. — 9 days ago
