Seven years and delicious with quite a bit of life left in it. 2016 could easily drink to 2024 or 2025 if stored correctly.
Light straw colored. Has a toasted scent, a bit of vanilla, similar to a brut. More like the crust of well buttered toast. Ok, enough of analyzing that… The first thing you’ll notice when you taste is the salinity, super strong, followed by strong minerality and crisp green tart apples. It’s a lingering wine, not a casual sipper. I bet it would be great with some food. Medium bodied, high acid, makes your tongue push against the top of your mouth.
I know it’s an Ouillé style, but I think there is some oxidation going on. Not much, but it’s there. Love it. — a month ago
Deep spice overtone on a classic Bordeaux. Maybe a bit too much. — 6 days ago
220430 en Croacia en ZOI con Vero. Muy balanceado Pinot Noir, 2018. Aromático y correcto com la comida. Con el dulce no iba tan bien — a month ago
Fruit forward with a very light sweetness. Enjoyable. — a month ago
Would liken to an entry level rioja. Dark red fruit, tobacco, astringent tannins. Mellowed out a little after opening but still a bit rough on the finish. — 2 months ago
Needed an hour or so to open. I probably will hold off on the rest of these for a few more years. — 2 months ago
