Yes, I’m kind of posting for the sole reason of using the title: something in this symmetry of the number, size, and alliteration makes me so content.
Anyways, __here are the tasting notes__:
From magnum. I agree that a few years could help a lot here.
Fine and persistent mousse, just as it should be. Very deep nose of mushrooms, Chinese cooking wine, saffron, and gougères. Ginger. Dried red apple. Armagnac and wax.
On the palate, it’s medium in body with medium+ acidity and voluptuous mousse. Toast or pie crust. Lemon curd, cherry pit. Penicillin cocktail.
Medium+ finish.
9/18. Air time helps and will improve with age.
What a night! This was drank before a magnum of ‘23 Le Serre Nuove dell’Ornellaia and a magnum of ‘10 Sassicaia. We also finished a bottle of Bellavista Alma Assemblage 1, 2 bottles of ‘11 LdH Tondonia (Reserva, red), and a bottle of ‘22 Il Pino di Biserno. Perfect evening of friends, happiness, and a little excess. And raclette. Notes available.
