Rather different from my last btl. Five hours or so air. Much more mineral, with loads of crushed stone and red berry. Lovely hi-toned acid on the palate; crushed red raspberry, attenuated tannin on the finish. Nose is better than the palate.

Sep 17th, 2021Opened yesterday; on the counter overnight. On the nose: loads of loads of red fruit, toasty sandalwood, a touch of hi-toned va, and spices. On the palate: excellent hi-toned acidity, good density, wild strawberry, sour plum, some tannic bitterness..transitioning into finely grained tannins. Better than my last btl.

Mar 8th, 2021Not bad. On the nose: dusty red fruit, soft wet leaf, raspberry...fairly generic. On the palate: good acidity, dense red fruit and spice, nice density, but still fairly simple. On the finish: very soft coarsely grained tannin.
I'm surprised how different these are than the Lutum wines...I've really enjoyed Lutum wines, and this was a disappointment.

Light and sultry, perfumed nose, intense mineral flavor, very well balanced! Will keep a look out for this!
