I love this wine. So complex and soft yet intense. Drinking so well now.

Feb 5th, 2023The top wine at Sòt. Darkest color of all the wines so far but still very light in the grand scheme of things. Nose is fascinating with big boy sour cherries. So sappy and pure aromas with a wild herbal, mineral, feral side as well. Perfumed and elite but wild. Love it. Leather, tar, roses, tea. Wow what a palate. So refined and elegant. Super super elegant. It just floats. This is incredible. Nose led me to believe one thing but palate has me believing another thing. Really concentrated and just bonkers complexity and that insane Sòt freshness and transparency. Superb, actually elite structure. Really deep. A beautiful wine that has substantial tannins as it airs but deep fruit and just incredible minerality. So long and a taste of precise cherries and rocks on the palate. Nose opens up more with an insane penetrating perfume. Less wild, more of a crushed rock, mineral perfume. Again, that tiny hit of 16 opulence. This has linearity and energy for days. So pure. Young but man this is the bomb. So so promising.

Terrific. Great medium cherry fruit. Good spice.
Long sapid finish.

Nose is intense cherry with some spice. Almost sing the lines of an elegant brunello. As this opens you get those deep fresh hand crushed rose petals that come to the fore.
Palate is intense fresh fruit. Just a super intense blast. Wow. Major acidity held in check by the fruit. As this opens this is borderline elite deliciousness.
Has this thing on the finish that implies it will explode in 3 years.
90 minute decant.
