TASTING NOTES

Kenichi Ohashi MW

Gentle resinous oak, austere mulberry cloves, chunky, med+ tannins, high in acid, tarry, slightly drying finish.

Tim Tiptree MW

Deep ruby color. Mature nose with oak spice dominating the fruit. Very tannic, but has a refreshing acidity and moderate finish.

Fei Fei Liu

Deep purple color with strong toasty aromas, dominated by cumin. Rich, full body, lots of dark fruits showing in the mouth. Structured tannin, long finish. But the oak influences are not integrated well for now. Needs a bit more time for aging.

Xiao Pi

Inky and meaty on the palate with lots of dark and dried fruits. Lots of new oak. Generous – spicy and tight on the palate with good potential.
