Mature, raisins, good tannins — 3 years ago
Opener pre meal. Maybe the beginning of a love affair: only the 3rd Timorasso I’ve tried; waxy white fruits, mildly floral on nose, a bit of that wooly thing reminiscent of Chenin Blanc; also, similar texture. Moderate acidity. Delicious stuff that suits strong smelly cheese & charcuterie. — 21 days ago
€57 Venta de Posa — a year ago
Poured into a decanter about three hours prior to dinner. The 2012 pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with light staining of the tears and no obvious signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing with heavy notes of Morello cherry, exotic spices, bergamot, black tea, red flowers, cola nut and stony earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. This is a remarkable 2012 Riserva that hides its 15% alcohol about as good as any I have encountered. Full of character and full of life. My last bottle, but I hope to encounter this beauty again at some point in the future. Drink now through 2032. — 3 months ago
