This wine started out wonderful. Very well balanced and very smooth. Nice earthy tones. I was ready to give it a 9.
We started dinner and continued drinking the wine. The wine’s character really evaporated in about an hour. By the end it was still a very good wine, but the terroir was gone and instead the wine was more fruity than in the beginning.
I was really hoping it would remain constant it would certainly have been a best pick for me.
So, alas no 9 but I think it still deserves an 8. Nice wine just not the blow your socks off wine I tasted with the first sip.
