Dec 28th, 2014Prominent, distinctive nose. Hay? Oatmeal? Barnyard? Possibly Brett-affected? But it’s not an unpleasant note - just dominates the fruit. Palate is silky smooth with savoury dark red cherry and some spiciness. Shall leave it open a while and see how things develop... Edit: Night 2 and everything has integrated a lot more. Lovely drinking. A bit drying on the finish.
