05 saxum rocket block tn

had it over the weekend. 3 hour decant. beautiful nose but color lighter than i remember from prior bottles.
no heat even at 16.4%. this wine was on the verge of elegant.
there was a sweetness that was a bit off-putting. taste of sweet berries. maybe a bit too sweet i guess.
i’ve had these since release and will not hold my other 2 much longer. time to drink up and these were stored cool at about 53 degrees.

I had this recently and i do not recall any sweetness, it wasnt a bloody savouriness like an Alban but definetly not sweet.

I dont find Saxum’s to be overly sweet in general

Interesting. Just noticed I have a bottle and a magnum. Thanks for the note.
