Nearly hopelessly reductive... But after maybe an hour of aeration it started to show some pretty floral aromas amid the funk and barnyard. Had that quality of some rosatos of being truly in between a red and what you’d expect of a rose... good acid and cherry flavors, crunchy tannins and the Malvasia adds some high tone jasmine perfume. Extremely reductive but could have been just this bottle...

The hype is for real. A delicious vintage! Fresh strawberries and watermelon. Juicy. Refreshing. Way too easy to drink the whole bottle at once if you’re not careful!

Первый нос сразу кладет на лопатки, очень натурально и малиново. Чисто, без изъянов. Со временем в бокале не проявляет много новых нот, очень стойко держит свой "первый нос".
Сочетание с маринованными грибами просто фантастическое!
Особый стиль Корнелиссена не перепутаешь с другими "натуралами"..

2017 still showed strawberry and watermelon but less pronounced than on release, the 2016 had a lot of sour fruit. 2017 was better to me but others liked the 2016 and those jolly rancher tastes. Still alive and interesting to taste withs few years of age.
